Ship tip

Main dining room for dinner is wonderful, better than the Lido buffet. Conversely, we enjoyed the Lido breakfast buffet much more than the MDR breakfast. And Blue Iguana tacos are wonderful!!

We hit the beach. Margaritaville has a nice pool, but it's VERY crowded. There are plenty of beach chairs and snorkeling for beginners
