Unfortunately, you will not have enough time to do a real day rental. Ships arrive in the morning, takes some time to get off and go anywhere from the terminal. On the other end, you want to be back at the terminal with a bit of margin, they can leave you behind.
In most ports you can find a local outfit that have outings that match the cruise schedule. Since I focused on land excursions (like renting a taxi for few hours) or the beach, can not help you with sailing trip info. Good luck and be safe. Leslie.

The sailing excursions offered through the cruise line tend to be more motor-with-the sail-up, don’t-touch-the-lines, booze cruises — which I’m looking to avoid. Instead, I’d like to just go out, sail around, snorkel, beach, etc. on my own schedule. > > Any suggestions? > > > All the best, > > Edd > > > Edd M.
