Top tips for a smooth parking experience

  1. Arrive early: To avoid rushing and to ensure a stress-free start to your holiday, we’d recommend arriving well in advance of your embarkation time.
  2. Follow directions: Familiarise yourself with directions ahead of time. GPS coordinates and signage will guide you seamlessly to your designated parking area. 
  3. Prepare your documents: Have your booking confirmation, identification and cruise documents readily accessible upon arrival. This will speed up the check-in process and minimise delays.
  4. Secure your vehicle: Before leaving your car, make sure it’s securely parked and all valuables have been removed or stored out of sight. 
  5. Take note of location: Make a mental note or snap a quick photo of your parking spot to easily locate your car upon return.
