googalini Posted June 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hello everyone: We are sailing on RCCL out of Bayonne this summer, it is my understanding that there is self-parking on the pier. Does anyone know if reservations are required or recommended? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted June 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) No reservations. Plenty of parking. Please print out my directions. Others have followed them successfully. The signage is poor. When you come through the toll plaza there are lots of choices and you have to make a quick decision as to where you are going. For a first timer there's not time to stop and try to spot the correct little sign and I'm not sure the names of all the streets are clearly marked. GPS is notoriously bad in this area. After you pay your toll you go straight across the toll plaza and get on a 2 lane ramp that goes up and curves left. This is hard to miss. On the ramp you stay on the right and make the first right, stay to the right and make another right. You will come to the light at route 440 where you will make a left, stay left, and make a left at the first light onto Goldsborough Drive. Route 440 is a four lane divided highway. You can only turn left at a traffic light - going south the first light is now at Goldsborough Drive. The left turn into the port used to be at Port Terminal Blvd (and it still is coming the other way), but they shut down that turn fairly recently and made Goldsborough Drive the main port access road coming from the north. Goldsborough Drive will merge with Port Terminal Blvd. You will be able to see the ship and you just follow the crowd about 2 miles out to the ship.

MedicKen Posted June 27, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Carol is exactly correct (sounds a little redundant). What I wanted to interject is they will charge you for the entire cruise up front. You can pay with cash pr credit card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
