Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The quality of food was average, breakfast and lunch buffets were OK.The sit down dinner meals on the other hand were always cooked perfectly and delishous. There was always a place to eat no matter what time.

We booked and excursion for this island too kayaking to pigeon island, they basically took us kayaking in a circle then to the island, i think we just should have got a taxi there. But the island is spectacualr, you can hike up to a small fort for panaramic views, and swim in the beautiful water. There is a retaurant called the Coal Pot, that is a ferry ride away near the boat just ask at the information desk AWESOME food!

Bridgetown, Barbados

loves barbados we actually booked and excursion through the ship to malibu beach, next time i wouldnt have did that, later we found out a taxi ride from the ship to there was 5$, much cheaper than our excusion price. from the beach we payed a man to take us out on his catamaran to go snorkeling with turtles we saw i think 3 turtles so for 25$ it was worth it.

Roseau, Dominica
