Review summary

This cruise was an improvement over the identical cruise in June. The food was very good, had variety and presentation. The terminal in Charleston is inadequate resulting in long lines and walks for those with mobility issues. Grand Turk, the first stop, has a very large area with inter connected pools and a wave rider feature. Skip the rock bottom beach and head for the pool, just a short 2 block walk. Half Moon Cay is Tender access, but worth the wait. Don't stress, you have plenty of time here. A beautiful, clean, sugar sand beach with crystal clear water, and no surf to beat you up. Plenty of free beach chairs,use  sunscreen for sure! Nassau is fun, the Straw Market has unique shopping, with good deals if you can bargain well. This cruise is a good value for the family.
