Cycling Cruise Deck Plan Which side of the ship has better views? When selecting a stateroom you may wonder whether you should pick port or starboard for better views. During cruising time, both sides have equal appeal. While docked, note that due to potential Double Docking, it is impossible to predict whether a starboard or port stateroom may face another ship.
