Bluegrass Gal Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Hello, all! Sailing on the Harmony of the Seas May 12th. We're wondering just how limited the activities are on board if we decide to stay behind on a port day to enjoy the ship. Are the bars open around the pools? How about restaurants and shops? I'm guessing the wait staff is somewhat limited during the day. It would be nice to enjoy the pool one day without fighting 5,000 other people for lounge chairs. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjac Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Yes the pools are open as well as the water slides and flow riders, if they are on your ship. Some restaurants will be open as well as the bars. The shops and casino are closed. Bluegrass Gal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmdrfrag Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Port days are a great time to experience the ship when its less crowded. Pools will certainly be opened along with the pool bars (weather permitting of course), other bars will be open as well but there may be a couple that will open later in the day. With regards to activities I'd recommend having a look at a old Cruise Compass for a similar sailing, take a look at one for a port day and you'll be able to see what sort of activities they'll have on over these days for you. Also as a side note, you might get lucky a score a bit of discount for the Spa or a Restaurant, the crew will sometime wander round offering a bit of discount if you come that day/night Bluegrass Gal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike P Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Was on Mariner this past weekend. While in Nassau there was no line for the slides at all and the Flowrider was never more then 3-4 people waiting. We had a great time on the sports deck!
