That would be me!! Love cruising DCL and have sailed the 7 nt. Eastern 2x's and 3nt. 2x's with our next booked on the 7nt. western, next March. The seas have been relatively calm all times. As for the weather, leaving PC has been chilly most times...really depends on the weather as a whole in FL. Warmer in the islands, and CC can be hit or miss. Docking depends on the winds and have not missed it yet, although this past March it was iffy and we finally docked around noon.This can happen anytime of year you are cruising. I don't find the water temps to be warm enough for "me" at CC in March, but the beach is wonderful and warm.Truely Paradise!! Enjoy!

We are heading out on the March 25th Magic as well. I hope that the seas are calm and the weather warm. Only 288 days to go!

We are going on the March 26th Wonder, and it will be our first time going in March. I hope the weather is nice and the seas are calm. We went in December last year and it was chilly. I didn't like having to wrap up in a towel to stay warm at CC. It was a nice temperature for the Kayak tour because we never got too hot from paddling.

I guess we will have to wait and see. I wonder what the temperatures are like in Florida the last week of March. I really hate standing in lines at the parks in the heat, so it would be nice if the temperatures are cool in Orlando.

I have done the Eastern on March 22-29, 2003, and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gorgeous weather, calm seas, just plain AMAZING..!!!!!!!!!!!

We arrived in Florida a day early, and it was damp and rainy, but, when the next day arrived, it was CLEAR and beautiful.. THe sail away party was perfect.....

I have no idea if this is the norm or not, but it was spectacular...

We went this past March-Weather was perfect-seas were great until our last day on the way home-windy, rainy and 13 ft-20 ft waves.

I hear the weather in March and December are pretty comparable.

We have done both our cruises in March and the weather was not a problem.

Also on the March 25 , 2006 Western..


we went March 24, 2004 Eastern and did not experience any rough seas or crummy weather. Although, since I thought about it, the weather in St Thomas was rainy. And the St Martin weather was ok. We went on the snorkeling tours, so weather didn't bother us.
