St. Maarten: Tendering to shore or docking?

[KMack]

The last time we sailed into St. Maarten, we had to tender to shore. Does anyone know what the plan is for the upcoming southern Caribbean Wonder cruise out of San Juan (27 January -03 February)?

Thanks

Probably dock. The port calendar doesn't have a pier for Disney this far out, but you can check it again as you get closer to your sailing time. http://201.220.14.28/sxm/MainMenu.aspx?ShipScheduleType=2

Generally you dock. We did. Could be tender if there are many ships.

I checked the cruise terminal schedule which indicates 6 ships in port, so it will be a busy day. I stand to be corrected but I think the terminal can accommodate 7 ships so we should be good to dock.

We have been to St. Maarten many times and did not even know you might have to tender . We will also be on this cruise

We've always docked there too. If you want to be sure, ask https://stmaartencruiseexcursions.com/
they have a live help and have been great with info to help plan our day, with the timing of arrivals and tours times so they are experts on St Maarten
