Great stirrup cay with oceania

[Jimmyke]

Hey,

 

In march we go with the Rivièra to great stirrup cay.

i cruised already with oceania....

 

But when an oceania ship anchors here, is it the same good quality as On Oceania or is it the NCL setup ?

 

best regards jimmy

It is going to the beach.   Same sand and water for everyone.   Oceania and NCL seem to have their own parts  but everything else looks to be the same.   Very nice day.

Great Stirrup Cay is owned by NCLH where their ships occasionally anchor for the day. While there is a small permanent maintenance staff on the island, during a ships visit numerous ship crew members and food are brought ashore to service passengers.

 

The Cay has its own large 2 deck boats for tendering from the ship into a protected cove area. During our stopover on Sirena, the seas were choppy and the ship had to hold at anchor so tendering could be done on the lee side. If the seas had been much worse I doubt it would have stopped there.

 

The beach area(s) are large. There are several restrooms where you can change if you wish. If you have one, you can use your ship beverage package onshore. A BBQ/Picnic style Lunch will start around 11:30. You can return to the ship when you wish.

I enjoy private island beach days...easy to get around, good facilities and good food from the ship. Makes for no hassles or stress....just relaxation.
