Ship tip

When adding money to your cash account have at least $100 because I was unaware of the gratuity fee charged to my account at the end but to be safe add $200 or more if your cruise is 5 days to purchase drinks.

The port was good a lot of places to shop wish there was more beach and room to swim it felt too packed. I will plan an excursion next time for sure.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

Loved this island because all the perks that’s were included with the price of the cruise can be used on the island so we got our free lunch served to us and we had use of our sign and sail card to purchase drinks

This port was very busy, we were not aware of how far we had to go to get to the beach once we got off the ship. The independent taxi drivers really try to hustle you for your money so be careful we almost got charged $25 per person just to get to paradise island and Atlantis beach. But then a lady kindly directed us to the ferry which would take us round trip for only 8$ per person so thankful she told us that. Once we got off the ferry we had to walk maybe another 20 minutes or 30 to get to the beach and all along the way local merchants pressure you to buy and ask you to try this and that and they don’t leave you after you say no, they continue to follow you around so be careful with your money and personal items. But once we got to the beach we had a great time.
