Jewel in april port question

[Joe3245345]

First time cruisers going on RCCL Jewel in April. We will be arriving in Nassau at 7 and leaving at 5. Want to book Blue Lagoon Dolphin Swim on own to save money. How far is it from port to the ferry? Can we catch the 8:30 ferry to Blue Lagoon? I just want to be able to enjoy the beach there and the dolphins without being rushed back. Is this feasible?

Thanks

We did the Dolphin Encounter (less expensive) in a ship's excursion with RCC and are glad we did as the ferry ride is quite long.

If we dock at 7 can we catch the 830 ferry on our own? And if the boat leaves at 5 is the 330 ferry back good?

Thanks

I'm not sure about "ferry", but if you are talking about the "Water Taxi" that is only a 10 or 15 minute walk from the ship pier. If that is what you are talking about, you will have PLENTY of time.

 

Just as side-bar - Be Sure to enjoy the Sea-View Café on deck 12 while is still exists. They have the BEST onion rings in the world.

 

Hope This Helps

Izumi will be replacing the SeaView when she goes into Dry Dock March 27th.
