Anyone make it to GSC lately?

Are the ships making it to GSC lately? I'm supposed to be there on Sunday and am really hoping we make it!

 

I was wondering the same thing. We leave on the 16th, and it would be really disappointing not to make it to that island. :(

We were there last week on the Dawn and it was wonderful. The weather was great although the water was a bit chilly. My only suggestion would be to try and get on one of the first 2 tenders if you want a lounger. Have a great time!

hi

we were on the sky last week and did not make the island we were really disapointed as we had travelled from scotland and had a snorkel package as part of my husbands birthday gifts :( the captain said it was too dangerous for passengers and crew so we had a sea day dont know if we will get the chance again but you have to agree with the saftey aspect and the captain

We were on the Sky 2/16-2/21 and we made it! the water was really rocky it it too time and patience to get the tender filled. We had to wait just to get on - we were on the first boat. There were a lot of frustrated passengers waiting in lines in the hallway. They were doing their best to get the tender going.

 

Absolutely get on the first one - all the front row loungers will be full if you don't. After a while people start pulling loungers and chairs closer and closer to the water. If you can get there early you get a nice chance to enjoy the view.

 

Bring towels - they tell you to but people forget. Bring a refillable mug if you have one so you can fill it with water when you're there. Coffee too I think.

 

We had a great day - it went by way to fast and we were there about as long as possible. The walk to the lighthouse was funny - its a tiny lighthouse. BBQ was nice - great fresh fruits too. The straw market was overpriced but we didn't care - still paid $10 for a fun snowglobe.

 

Get there early and have a great time!
