Herby Posted February 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for Port or Starboard balcony for the 9N Southern Caribbean route? TIA Herb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HangryGrl Posted February 23, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I guess it depends on what you are looking for. We were on the starboard side in January and if I remember correctly we were looking out towards the ocean (not at the city where docked) at each port aside from Ladabee.

Clarea Posted February 23, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for Port or Starboard balcony for the 9N Southern Caribbean route? TIAHerb I don't think it makes much of a difference, the side the ship will dock on is unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njm5378 Posted February 23, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 23, 2018 On our trip ABC islands were all on the port side of the ship. Labadee we docked on the starboard side, nose in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 23, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2018 In port, they do lifeboat drills for the crew...so it will depend on which lifeboats are due to be tested at any given port. Also, where the captain is told to dock, and other factors as well. There are views everywhere in harbor....you won't be facing "out to sea"!

Curacao has one docking facility facing out to sea and one just past the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
