I want to cruise Posted June 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Anyone know the exact location where the ferry drops off in St. George's? Have an excursion there and traveling with people who have mobility issues and wondered if we can walk to our excursion or if we may need transportation/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtheile Posted June 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 18, 2019 It drops off at the World Heritage Center, which I think is where the regular ferry drops off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is your excursion? Edited June 18, 2019 by Charles4515 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CILCIANRQTS Posted June 18, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 18, 2019 The walk up Water Street to King’s Square can be a bit of a challenge for folks with mobility issues, so if your tour starts in the Square, consider a very short cab ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wondering what type of excursion they are doing in St. George's. I think in another post they mentioned a wheelchair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to cruise Posted June 18, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted June 18, 2019 You sound like you know the area. By chance do you know if we can walk it? We will be pushing 2 wheelchairs and can walk it if its not too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the area because I have taken the public ferry there and been on been on cruise ships that docked overnight at Pennos Wharf. Walked by that marine station on the way to the town square a bunch of times. It is an very short distance but it is uphill so pushing the wheelchairs if someone is in them probably depends on who is pushing. If they can walk short distances I would call the distance very short. You would be arriving practically next door.

jtheile Posted June 19, 2019 #12 Share Posted June 19, 2019 If you look at google maps you can get a street view of it. I was there last Wednesday and from what I remember there is a narrow drive from the plaza in front of the World Heritage Centre that has a minor incline to the street from there is it pretty flat to the gas station. The first picture shows the drive with the little fence in it, the second shows the road leading up to it and the third shows the other direction with the gas station just to the right of the pink building.

ALS1214 Posted June 28, 2019 #14 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Does NCL have a free ferry to Hamilton as well? how often do they leave the Docklands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imacruiser99 Posted June 28, 2019 #15 Share Posted June 28, 2019 NCL does not have a free ferry to Hamilton, you can use the public ferry for fee, or the public bus, or one of the mini-buses at the end of the dock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the previous poster said there's no free ferry to Hamilton . Here's a link to the public ferry schedule. Take the Blue Route to get to Hamilton: http://www.marineandports.bm/Documents/Ferry/Summer Ferry Schedule 2019.pdf You can also take the public bus to Hamilton, but it's about a one hour ride and the buses haven't been very reliable recently. Here's the schedule. Routes 7 and 8 run to Hamilton: https://www.gov.bm/sites/default/files/Bus-Schedule-May-2019.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way one would go to Hamilton is if you had enough people going there to fill a bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bets1 Posted July 5, 2019 #18 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Is there a schedule posted somewhere for the NCL ferry? Planning our first time sailing NCL. I didn't see anything on their website, other than their excursion, which is a huge ripoff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I copied a schedule that was from a sailing in May that someone posted which I will post but I can’t guarantee that is the schedule they will run on your sailing. It will give you an idea for planning. Monday depart Dockyard 9am, 11:15am, 1:30pm depart St. George's 10am, 12:30pm, 3pm, 5:15pm Tuesday depart Dockyard 9am, 11:15am, 1:30pm depart St. George's 10am, 12:30pm, 3:30pm Wednesday depart Dockyard 9am, 11:15am, 1:30pm depart St. George's 10am, 12:30pm, 3pm, 5:15pm Thursday depart Dockyard 9am, 11:15am, 1:30pm depart St. George's 10am, 12:30pm, 3pm, 5:15pm Friday depart Dockyard 9am depart St. George's 1:00pm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
