my wife and I are going on our first cruise in Aug. We are taking the legend out of tampa. Does anyone know if we can take a cooler to the ports that the ship stops at. we want to take water with us.

Hi r00ster88, welcome to Cruise-Chat. Congratulations on your up-coming cruise! You could take a cooler with you, but it really isn't necessary unless you're planning on going on a hike. You're normally not going to be far enough away from the ship to not be able to go back on board and fill up your water bottle. However, if you want to take up the extra space and weight, it will be allowed. They will check it when you come back on board, however. To save money, just fill up your bottle on board. The ship's water is as good if not better than any bottled water. Hope you have a marvelous time, and once again, welcome aboard!

Hi r00ster88, Welcome to Cruise-Chat!

I take a small cooler for my cabin. I have never taken it off in a port before though. I don't see why it would be a problem. Now taking it into a private establishment, or a private beach could be against their policies. You would have to check with them about that.

Congrats, on booking the Legend. It was my last cruise, and I loved the ship.

Welcome aboard,

Dwayne
