    We are going on the Wonder to Grand Cayman in November. We have scheduled a dolphin port adventure which is 3.5 to 4 hours. We would like to also see the beaches there. Is there a way to do another adventure? Or do you have suggestions on how to?

    Welcome aboard, Cinnamon! I'm happy to hear you'll be setting sail on the Disney Wonder with a stop at Grand Cayman. I love Grand Cayman Island!

    Sometimes guests are able to book two Port Adventures, but it really depends on timing. Disney's website will not allow you to book two Port Adventures that interfere with each other, so if you find a shorter one that you are able to book along with your Dolphin Swim, go ahead! However, I have a feeling that you may only be able to book that one particular adventure in Grand Cayman. 

    If you find that you have quite a bit of extra time when your motorcoach brings you back to the port area, you could catch a bus to the free public Surfside Beach, just down the road from the port. It is about $5 per person each way and there are quite a few buses waiting outside the port and also at the beach when you're ready to come back. This beach has bars and restaurants as well as rentals of chairs, umbrellas and water gear available. 

    Please check your Personal Navigator to confirm the last tender time for getting back to the ship that afternoon, Cinnamon. Usually it's at about 4:00 in Grand Cayman. Keep in mind that since you have to tender, there can be quite a line up of guests at the port waiting to board the tender boats back to the ship. Play it safe and plan to be at the port no later than 3:15 or 3:30, just in case. You certainly do not want to miss the boat!

    And if you find that your Dolphin Adventure takes up most of your day, there is quite a bit to explore at the port itself before you get back on the ship if you don't have time for the beach. Plus, you'll have plenty of beautiful beaches to explore in Cozumel and Falmouth, Jamaica, so don't worry if you can't spend a day on Grand Cayman's beach!

    I hope that helps as you continue to plan, Cinnamon! Let me know if I can help with anything else before you set sail!
