ChicagoBound Posted December 25, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Wondering on average what times ships return to port in Ft. Louderdale on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I'm in Florida and am considering going to that park near the port to watch the ships come in, recognizing that the ships may come in at 4am. (I'd be willing to head over at 4am if necessary.) Any insight would be appreciated. Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 25, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Oasis class is usually scheduled to arrive at 6am, and typically arrives earlier. I've been on other Royal ships that are scheduled to arrive at 7am, and also get there earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LMaxwell Posted December 25, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 25, 2015 To go that early you will have to be on the north side of the inlet. on the south side John U Lloyd park will not be open that early. generally speaking 2000 South Ocean Drive, Fort Lauderdale, is where the onstreet parking for visitors exists (either side of that building address). There isn't a lot of on street parking. *The public entrance to the beach is tricky* It is across from the corner of Anchor Drive and South Ocean Lane. Between the high rise condo and a smaller 2 story old style condo is a small gate. That is the public beach access. From that point to the tip of the Jetty is a 10 minute walk in sand but not too bad. If you are parked by 5:00AM and walk out you will have great views of the ships just offshore as they get their pilots and then come in through the inlet.

Smiley4 Posted December 26, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Or you can stay up later tonight and see the Navigator coming in. It's scheduled to arrive just after midnight with a seriously injured child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
