Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island) Port Reviews

Sit back and relax here. This was one of the reasons we booked this cruise. The waters are beautiful, and you can just sit down in the water snd make a day if it. Carnival foes have a BBQ set up which us ok. Just remember that your drink package dies not follow you onto 1/2 Moon Cay. Your sail and sign card will be charged for any drinks you buy

**** CCL is now selling cold beer in soft coolers at Half Moon Cay. What a great idea! We bought one & kept the waterproof soft-sided beer bag. **** We noticed a couple melting down on the beach having a very heated argument. In the middle of beach heaven, and this is the moment you choose to start a massive fight with your other half. Lay off the excessive alcohol, boys & girls.

This is one a nicest venues I've ever been to. Beautiful island, crystal clear water, and a nice free lunch. We rented a clamshell, but spent amost the entire time in the water.

Water taxi was fine. Mad house to get back on the water taxi. Happy moon cat was beautiful, however we were not informed we’re all the activities were taken place, later in the day when we found out, we were disappointed we did not participate. The itinerary listed the activities but not a location. It is a large beach, very crowded. The water sports are limited, we tried to rent a kayak or bike, but told they were sold out. After seeing these things we’re not being used, we asked about it, and we were told “they had been reserved and they were no shows and if we had waited for to see of people did not show, then we could have rented one.” First, we were never told that, when we asked, the response was just, “sold out” nothing else. Drinks are Very Expensive!!! The beverages come from the ship, served by ship staff. The beverage package should be accepted on Carnival’s private island. This is pretty much price gauging charging us double, the daily price for the package and then again on your island with the drinks coming from the ship!

Best day ever! Highly recommend the island tram tour! Perfect beach day

Loved it. We were just one boat and it was full. Highly recommend you get off within the hour of docking. For good seats Clear water. Get a 10$ floaty from Amazon

Water was beautiful. Good relaxing day.

This was the highlight of our first cruise. Swam with stingrays and played in the water all day! Water was perfect and I liked that I could use my sign and sail and didn't have to take cash on a beach day.

This island is beautiful but it is owned by Carnival. Excursions were the only thing here or laying on the beach. These were the only activities here.
