Which side does Carnival Elation dock in Half Moon Cay ?

[niciediva007]

I have a room that is Port side of Elation. I am curious to know whether it is typical for Elation to dock Port side facing the shore, or Starboard side. I don't care which side I have either way, except that I would not mind having a room that wakes up to seeing the beach the day we dock.

 

I think I've seen photos of Elation docking either way. In your experience, which has it been. It might be a crapshoot and dependent on factors like weather, etc., but if there is a preferring docking side, I'd like to choose that one.

Half Moon is a tender port, the ship will drop anchor and you will be taken ashore on small boats.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yes, I know. I was specifically asking which side of the boat faces the shore when it anchors? Is there a standard orientation of how it comes to port?

The ship will generally be facing straight at the beach with a little sway.
