Personally, we don't judge our daily plans on the cruise schedule...except for totally staying away from P'burg when the big ones are in. The Orient beach area, may be a bit more crowded with the cruisers, but usually by 1 oclock or so the crowds quickly start to disappear with them all heading back to their departures. by 2:30 or 3:00 they usually are all gone....and then it is the best time to be at Orient!!! The beach at sunset also gets loaded now with the cruisers when they are in port. My advise is to relax do whatever you were planning to do and don't worry about a few extra people walking around Orient because they won't be there long!!
