Arriving to tender in the stunning bay of Kotor, Montenegro. When there isn't a pier for us to dock alongside in certain ports, we drop ⚓️ & use our tender boats & local tour boats to take guests and crew from the ship to shore & back again. The tender captains are my Deck officers who pull double duty driving tenders & standing watch on the Bridge. Fun fact: our yacht designed tenders (or as we call them "launches") are $1 million/each & they're equipped with bucket seats, televisions, air conditioning, etc. for the comfort of our guests & crew during tendering port days. The Magic Carpet (the tennis court-sized, tangerine cantilevered platform on the starboard side) is lowered to sea level to enable a seamless embarkation/disembarkation to & from the tenders by way of the Destination Gateway, which is a large, wide-open lounge where security screening is set up. It's the most luxurious tender operation I've ever seen on cruise ships! @Celebrity Cruises #gobeyond #tender #celebritybeyond #cruise #ship
