How much time do you have to visit an island, after your cruise ship has been docked? |
I was wondering after your cruise ship is docked, how long do you usually have to visit an island and whatnot? |

Usually it runs 6 to 9 or 10 hours, although occasionally an island stop may be from mid-morning to midnight. There are, very rarely, overnight stops, but those are normally only on long cruises such as a world cruise. You will find enough time for a general overview of an island and a bit of shopping. But DON'T BE LATE in getting back to the ship! If you are on a ship-sponsored excursion they will hold the ship, but if you are on your own you are simply left! |

depend on which island u r in,usually its 6-10hrs. |

Not much, usually 6-8 hours. There are some ports where they stay docked over night giving you more time but that's not the case on most cruises. |

varies, at some ports they are docked for 5 hours, others from 8 to 10 hours. |

the minimum is usually 4 hours and max is usually 9 hours...you don't have to get off the ship if you don't want to (some folks actually stayed on the ship in every port for some odd reason !). I have been on 2 cruises and always felt like we had enough time to see everything we wanted and to shop ! You can always get back on the ship as early as you want, just don't be late and stay too long on the island, the ship WILL leave without you ! It's alot of fun. |

You will typically have the better part of a day for any port. It's enough to get a feel for the place, but not long enough to really dig in deep. Make sure you don't miss the last call to get back to your ship, though, as they will leave without you! |
