AwayInParadise Posted July 6, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Has anybody ever had problems with Grand Caymen in December? We were scheduled to go there in March before and couldn't go because tendering wouldn't be possible. Are the waves this bad in December? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingtodive Posted July 6, 2007 #2 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I was there end of Dec 2005, able to tender, water very warm. Go to the island website and you should be able to get the average air and water temp. A cruise in April 06 didn't make it in because of wave action. Then in May 07, made it to the island again. Just be prepared that you may not make it to the destination, but you will have a fun day at sea, make the most of it. Carnival will refund any funds you paid for shore excursions, and the private tour companies know the drill, they won't charge for you not showing up because the ship didn't anchor. Hope you make it!

mrdood Posted July 6, 2007 #3 Share Posted July 6, 2007 There is never a guarantee you will get to any port... what happened last year, is not a predictor of this year. We were there in December 2005, there were several days ahead of us where the port was closed because of rough seas, for our day it was glassy smooth. None of that will matter for your day - :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patneeds2cruise Posted July 6, 2007 #4 Share Posted July 6, 2007 We were in Grand Cayman middle of December 2006. We were able to tender without any problems. It was a little windy but a beautiful day. We booked the stingrays with Captain Marvin and the water was a little choppy for snorkeling but we made it just fine anyway and had a great time. Hope it works out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorbinCatFan Posted July 7, 2007 #5 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Cruised the week of Christmas 2005 and the weather in was wonderful. The only problem we had was the wind in Cozumel. We couldn't tender due to high winds. [/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
