Hey guys! It is now 3 days from my cruise and the excitement is building! The kids are about to come out of their skin! However I need some last minute info so that I can be sure to plan everything just right.
Here it is, our ship is schedule to dock at WICO on Wed 11 at 8am, I checked the ferry schdule for CA and there is a 9am to STJ. How far is CA from where the ship is docked and can I make the 9am ferry. And is it true still that there is still no 2:15 ferry back from STJ?
If your ship truly doesn't dock until 8am then you won't be off by 9am. It takes awhile for the ship to be prepared for passenger disembarkation and usually the first passengers allowed to disembark are those who have purchased shore excursions through the ship. If 8am is not the ship's docking time but the all ashore time then you may make the 9am ferry. Either way, just grab a taxi when you get off and they'll get you to the STJ ferry dock and you can catch the next boat.
Felicia - CA is only 5 min (by taxi) from the cruise ship pier. If you just miss the 9:00, you can catch the 10:00 out of Red Hook (Red Hook - STJ ferry is only 20 min).
Thanks guys for the help! I am so stressin' that we won't have enough time to get over to STJ and back to the ship! I want to so go over to Hawksnest to takt my kids snorkling just really don't want to do a cruise excursion. If anyone has any suggestions please feel free.
Thanks again.
