On NCL EPIC at present and couldn't stop today in Jamaica- gutted

Well has the title stays we tried to dock at both Falmouth and Montego Bay today but couldn't due to winds. He was going to try another 1 there but another big ship had already docked. Gutted another day at sea has yesterday was a sea day. I understand it's for safety.

I've done 1 cruise in Europe 7 years ago and didn't like it, I was told to try the Caribbean before saying never again. I'm 50-50 at the minute. I'm not liking being stuck on the ship and the crowds at both meal times and trying to get a pool bed are terrible.

We found finding a sunbed awful on the Epic, we had 6 straight days at sea.. have you tried going up on Deck 18? there were plenty up there as hardly anyone knew about it on our cruise in Oct/Nov.

TBH Montego Bay did nothing for me - I'm glad I just flew in and out of it

I have 4 kids 14,11,8 & 5 so deck 18 was no good for us. Just currently sat in the room waiting for kids club to open back up.

We had a reservation at jewel runaway bay resort for the day so was looking forward to getting off. We are in Cayman Islands tomorrow but nothing booked for there.

Sorry to hear this, on our first cruise we couldn't get into Antigua and I was gutted.
Epic is a huge ship and I can understand the sunbed difficulty.
When we went to Grand Cayman a friend who lived there took us to Smiths Cove, a lovely quiet spot that the locals go to, we had a picnic then swam in the sea. Happy memories. Might be worth getting a taxi to get away from the crowds.

We just got a taxi to part of the 7 mile beach at grand cayman, it was beautiful. Hope you manage to get onshore.

I hate sea days too.

When your looking for your next Caribbean cruise I believe sailing out of Puerto Rica cruises have less sea days.
