I found this port overpriced. I did not do an excursion. Seemed very crowded. Food is considerably overpriced.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

1 out of 5
Very small shopping area and not much to do in port unless you take an excursion
Thumbs Up

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
I love grand Cayman but I DID NOT like the way the boat tender schedule worked. We got off the boat 2.5 hrs after the first tender because we did not do an excursion. We had little time to enjoy this beautiful island because of the tendering issue.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

2 out of 5
Very dirty and “grubby” port. I did not do an excursion and had no desire to stay off the boat.

Disembarkation

The port of New Orleans is so unorganized.
