Royal Caribbean Breaks Ground for CocoCay Pier

'Bout time. Thumbs up.(y)

I am very excited about this. I just hope that when a mega ship is in Port that they do not have any more ships docked on the same day. Having the Majesty and Enchantment on the same day is fairly crowded as it is.

Any update on how the pier is coming along? Is the timeframe still June 2018?

Last I heard, they were talking September.

Any idea of the time frame for the complete update/renovation for CocoCay?

[Merion_Mom]

Last I heard, they were talking September.

And my money is still on October. :D

We were there on our last cruise on March 5 2018. They had 8 sections formed but not poured yet. Looks like about at least 8 more sections to form. Don t know how long it takes to pour but they are very large pier sections.

We'll be on Oasis next February/March and Nassau is on the itinerary. Any chance RCI might change that to CocoCay?:confused:

I have no clue, but my parents are going in December and hoping for the same thing.

Why would they? Also, the scheduling may not allow for that (ships already there).

Saw a Cruise Critic article listing 5 POC's not worth visiting, & Nassau was #1!!! Especially with kids; we'll be taking 3 grandkids ages 3, 9, & 10 cruising with us in May '19; the revamped Coco Cay looks so much more appealing to us than Nassau. Enjoyed it when we took my mother-in-law there in 2009, but it doesn't appeal to me to revisit it. Wife wants to go to Atlantis, but I can't see the cost being worth it considering how long we'll be in port. Without having to tender, I figure we can spend more time on the cay than we could at Atlantis. Since we have season passes for amusement parks & take the grandkids to them, the revamped cay falls into our 'grandkidstyle.'

That is what I read also.

Any updates on the pier itself? Would love to just be able to dock but doubt that will be ready soon.

I would much rather go to Nassau than be trapped in some private stop.

Maybe it is all the shortie cruises I've taken talking, but Nassau is my least interesting cruise port of all time.

 

I find Falmouth to be more filthy, but Nassau is definitely the most boring. At least for me. I'd choose CC over Nassau every single time without a second's extra thought. Every time.

Thanks for info, will be there next year on celebrity .

[mworkman]

Just don't let other cruise lines share the same pier...I know of one that likes to do more that break ground... LOL They will tear up that pier. :-)

I hope so. We are there on June 27. I'm trying not to get my hopes up!

I am also booked for December...and still shows Nassau.

Feel the same way about Labadee.

I'm there the 25th on Adventure. Bob says September and I think I heard that elsewhere, as well. Guess we'll be tendering....

The way things get done or not get done in the Bahamas it will probably be finished after MSC's Ocean Cay is finished.

MSC first announced that Ocean Cay would open in December of 2017. The first delay pushed back the opening to March of 2018. Now the island is post-poned until further notice (March 2019 at the earliest). I'll take 2025 for the win. PS: I hope I'm wrong because Ocean Caye looks fabulous.

I hadn't realized a pier was being constructed at Coco Cay. This explains why Coco Cay is listed on our Dec. 1st 2019 cruise on the Allure. Sounds great to me.
