Had a great time, first time at Palo (and will definitely go back!). The Baths at Virgin Gorda were great as well.
Any questions?
Any questions?
Not the OP, but we were at Castaway Cay on 2/28. We snorkeled for about 90 minutes ... and ran through many very cool currents. The water would quickly alternate between comfortable and BRRR! It was the coolish temp that eventually drove us back to the beach.Not sure where you are from but did you go in the water at Castaway Cay or other stops? If so was it cold.
Was the Baths hike hard? Did you go into the water there? What shoes did you wear?
Also did you sign up for the princess meet and greet and if so what day and times were you offered?
Thank you
My question is: will you write about it? Many of us are eagerly awaiting Eastern trip reports. If you dont want to do a whole TR, please let us know about Tortola. There is almost NO info on the Tortola excursions and getting around there.
We were booked for the Baths, but after lots of reading and taking into account my arthritis, I switched it to a snorkel trip (which i am also doing in st Thomas.) What I really want is a beach day which lasts longer than 1 hour ( DCL excursions ) thus, I am thinking of trying to go to Cane Garden Bay on our own. Did you meet anyone who did this?
I hope your trip was fabulous.
I would love info on The Baths..specifically if bringing a 3.5 year old is a good idea. We are leaning toward Cane Garden Bay, but would love to see The Baths. Thanks!
Also, how were the air and water temperatures? (Generally speaking-- nice,too cold, etc)
How were the seas/ rocking and rolling? Wondering what level of sea sickness meds to use. TIA
taishartrueblood, did you do the DCL excursion to Magen's Bay? We are booked on that one but I've read a lot of negative posts about being like cattle and chairs on top of each other. I've also read that it was a beautiful beach and great for kids which is why we haven't changed. Any comments about it?
Musk, you found the seas rough? I was on the ship with you and I slept in the aft and I didn't think it was rough at all. Rougher then when the stabilizers are down, sure, but there was no stumbling about or any items moving... you could barely see any tilt in the drinks. I have only been on 3 cruises so I am not THAT experienced, but it might have been more noticeable if this was your first cruise?
