Group of 6 in our party.  We are looking at the Night time glass bottom boat excursion.  Do you get to see much on this 90 minute excursion that will cost anywhere from $55 to $70? 

Several members of our party are also looking at the boat ride going past the millionaire row of homes of the rich and famous.  Do you get to see much or is it worth booking? 

We are looking to go  over to Nevis but don't want the full excursion including the sites.  We took

that excursion a few years back. which cost $154.  The Black Friday special that includes transportation by water taxi and a chair 

on the beach for $64.00

The RC description is:   

Discover a piece of Caribbean paradise with a visit to the island of Nevis, where you can escape

the bustle of St. Kitts and embrace an afternoon of tropical relaxation.

Highlights adventure begins with a short walk to the marina for a scenic water taxi ride to Nevis, 
Admire the dramatic Kittitian landscape, before arriving at the picturesque, white-sand beach,
 where you can sit back on a complimentary lounger, soak up the warm Caribbean sun.
Dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea for a refreshing respite from the sun
 or indulge in local cuisine with a tasty snack from a nearby restaurant, before returning 
to port and your awaiting ship.

It is on sale for Black Friday but don't have any info if the beach is in walking distance, if they take you there or if  you will be going to Pinney Beach which was very nice last time.

Has anyone taken this excursion and have answers to my questions.

Thanks

Family will be visiting beaches at Bimini, Paradise Island and CoCoCay.  We would love to bring back a few pieces of sea glass from the beaches in the area.  

Are there any beaches where we might find finished or smooth sea glass?

Thanks

Port Canaveral is not Orlando. Orlando is in the center of the state from east to west. Port Canaveral is on the eastern coast of Florida, about 45ish minutes away.

 

What ship are you sailing on? 

Looking at our Royal Caribbean's itinerary, the Enchantment of the Seas will dock at Orlando(Port Canaveral) Florida.    It looks like I need to pull up a map and get educated about the area.   Hope to get a local public bus so any info would be helpful.

Thank you to all the responses.  I didn't know there is more than one port in Orlando.  The itinerary is showing we dock at Port Canaveral.  Would that be  the north or south terminal?

There are 7 in our party.  Can we easily catch a public bus from the port to Ron Jon and the beach?  Instead would you suggest booking the transportation from the ship to the beach at $20 PP?   

DH and I walk about 3 to 4 miles a day.  Can you walk to Divi Little Bay from the cruise terminal?  Is it a safe with sidewalks or shoulder of the road?

We are interested in the Sand Castle as well.  I got the impression from someone else that  the chair/umbrella was $25 per person.  Is the charge $20 or  $25 for 2 chairs and an umbrella?  Can you use the beach if you don't want a chair and umbrella but an hour stop to take a dip?

Yes, we have seen and purchased sea glass in St. Croix.  Was hoping some of the other islands also had sea glass wash onto their beaches.  If it could be found on the beaches, it would most likely be made into a craft or jewelry by the locals.

Thanks CntPAcruiser for the information.

I would like to purchase from a shop or stand jewelry or items made from local sea glass.  Any suggestions?

I would also like to purchase a sea glass bracelet or jewelry.  Looking for any recommendations?

Looking for a few pieces of sea glass we can bring back home to add/make a windchime.

Are there any beaches sea glass washes up on?

Appreciate the help.

Have read on TripAdvisor there is at least one beach that sea glass washes up on shore and can be found.  Can anyone tell me if there is sea glass to be found on the island?

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Sea glass admirer.

We had purchased several pieces of sea glass jewelry while in St. Croix 2 years ago. So yes they must have it wash ashore. We seen sea glass on some of the beaches in Nevis but no one selling it. Too bad our cruise line RC doesn't have an excursion taking you over to Nevis without all the stops. It would be nice to just relax there.

Are there any beaches in St. Kitts that has sea glass or pottery shards? Any local crafters that make sea glass jewelry?

RC has an excursion to La Tille Waterfall and Garden. Has anyone been on this tour and what was it like?

Antigua beaches

We had taken several excursions when docked in Antigua in the past. Instead of a tour we plan on a beach day and a walk around town before getting back on the ship. We started researching but undecided which beach to visit for a swim. We are thinking of going to Valley Church, Darkwood or Dickenson Bay. I have read that there is a local bus to Darkwood but not sure about the other beaches. Have been dropped off at the beach at the end of tours in the past so never went on our own before. Not sure if we would take the bus as described being available on TripAdvisor or take a taxi. Does the bus take you to all three beaches? What beach would you recommend?

We also would love to find a few pieces of sea glass. Does any of the beaches have sea glass wash ashore? Would also buy a few pieces if shops sell it.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks

We are trying to decide on RC insurance or Allianz. RC has a special which is about $50 less than Allianz. We have always purchased Allianz in the past. Any suggestions on which to purchase?
