Creator's Key Takeaways

We are sitting inside with sunglasses on because it's excessively bright right now.

We walked up and it was closed and then they say come back tomorrow. That's hard to do on a cruise cuz you're only here for one day.

I ordered the sea bass... Lo and behold, on the top of the plate, on the top of the the fish, three stalks of asparagus laying on top of everything.

We don't understand it. No matter what they say, it's contra it contradicts.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a towel with you off the ship if you plan to use the lazy river.
Check the specific opening hours for port excursions as they may not align with ship arrival times.

YouTube Video Description

It's Day 3 of our Group Cruise on Norwegian Joy, and we're docked in lush, tropical Taino Bay, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic! The plan is to pay a visit to one of Taino Bay's most popular destinations, Monkey Island... but something unexpected changes the course of our entire day. See how we make the most of our monkey mishap, and still manage to have an amazing day, both in port, and aboard the ship. Our decision to book the Vibe Beach Club really came in handy, as we relax in the Vibe's hot tub and take in amazing views of Puerto Plata, and sail away. Later, we dine in one of NCL Joy's premium dining restaurants for amazing seafood dishes and more, Ocean Blue. After dinner we take in another stellar performance of The Beatles Revolution in The Joy Theater, and then enjoy a nightcap in the Joy's intimate Malting's Whiskey Bar.
