GET YOUR BEARINGS

From ship to shore.

Where you arrive

Cruise ships use Havensight and Crown Bay. Confirm your actual arrival point with the ship; these sample plans include a taxi allowance from either terminal.

Getting around

Arrange both the outward and return taxi journey. Do not assume a departure from one terminal will return to the other.

Make time for

Magens Bay is managed by the Magens Bay Authority. A beach-focused outing lets you keep the rest of your day simple; check current admission and facilities directly before leaving.
