Tendering in St. Martin from the Sea Princess?

[CaribbeanCrazy]

If we end up having to tender (there are 7 ships in port the day we are there) :eek: where does the tender drop us off? Downtown Philipsburg?

How early do they start letting non tour passengers off?

What time does the last tender leave to go back to the ship?

I would like to hear from recent Sea Princess cruisers so I know the procedures for that ship.

 

Thanks:)

Hi we are on the Sea Princess now. Last week we were in St Martin and had to tender as we did last year so pretty certain you will. Tendering started really early and it takes you to Bobby's landing which is at the end of the main street and boardwalk. It actually saves you having to pay the water taxi fare. It seems to be the larger ships that dock. Caribbean Princess was in plus a Carnival ship and we were the only ship at anchor

Julie,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.:)

I just checked Cruise Cal and notice that you had all the same larger ships in port that we will. So as you said...we will most likely be tendering.:(

But I am glad to hear we will be dropped off closer to town/shopping.;)

 

Enjoy the rest of your Cruise!
