Rare mitsugirly Posted January 17, 2015 #677 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Sunshine!We leave tomorrow and I have a question. The snorkling gear at LFK....do they supply fins? Just thought you might have noticed and don't want to bring mine if I don't have too. Thanks!! Yes, I'm pretty sure the extra price for snorkeling includes your equipment. I have my own as well but always take it and I can remember them asking me if I needed them. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runner5 Posted January 17, 2015 #679 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I'm a little confused. Does anyone know if you have to buy a package at LFK or can we go and just hang out there? Or is there an entrance fee and everything is alacart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madaboutmod Posted January 17, 2015 #680 Share Posted January 17, 2015 There are different packages. Look up the website. Its not free to just go hang out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is there an entrance fee and everything is alacart? Their website was posted a few post back. They offer a variety of packages which can include just a day pass, a day pass with lunch, a day pass with lunch and snorkeling...and so on. It also includes all of your transportation (by bus/car and also the ferry over and then back). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steph7021 Posted January 18, 2015 #682 Share Posted January 18, 2015 We are in port from 8-6 on Carnival Freedom. We may be meeting our family at 1 at LFK after a dive. How long would we be there before needing to leave? Wasn't sure of transport time....how often they transport etc... Just trying to decide if we would still get half a day and if it's worth it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Travelicious Posted January 23, 2015 #686 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I was there last week, and was really excited about finally getting to go. Unfortunately, I ended up leaving earlier than I had to. Maybe it was the seaweed that had blown in that morning and was everywhere. It wasn't their fault, and by the time I left, they had done a remarkable job of cleaning it up. It was also cloudy and windy, making the water too cool to enjoy. Again, certainly not their fault. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if the sun was shining. But the food wasn't very good, and the drinks were no cheaper than being on the ship. However, the owners were super friendly. If you have kids who love animals and you don't mind paying cruise ship prices for drinks after already spending $88 per person, this is probably a good place for you. For me, it wasn't worth the price. I acknowledge that my opinion is jaded by the conditions on that particular day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunshineCruiser24 Posted January 23, 2015 #687 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Don't forget $88 includes two drink tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mitsugirly Posted January 24, 2015 #688 Share Posted January 24, 2015 We didn't think the drink prices were any different than going to most places at any port ($5 for beer $7 for frozen, $2 for soda) not to mention that your are also not adding any 15% gratuity each time you order. So sorry the weather didn't cooperate with you and it made for not the greatest day/experience there. I have now learned first hand (with my last cruise) that weather really does play a huge part in how you end up feeling about a particular place and does put a damper on things. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it wasn't worth the price. I acknowledge that my opinion is jaded by the conditions on that particular day. We were there in early December. It rained of/on all day. We had gotten there early and had a cabana with table and chairs. It was cool but we did the water. We had a party of 8 and all enjoyed the food. My DH and I had the shrimp left off. Told them and they got it for us. We had our 2 free drinks and probably bought more. Food and fun are subjective. I am still of the opinion that any day on vacation will find better food and fun than being at work! Edited January 25, 2015 by DaNana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinax182 Posted February 5, 2015 #690 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I've been trolling this thread and am very thankful for it! My boyfriend and i are cruising to roatan in march next year and I have my heart set on little French key. Please bare with me if these questions have been answered. We'll be cruising with Royal Caribbean....i believe that means we'll dock in Coxen Cove? Is that correct? How far is that from LFK? How often does the boat bring people back to the mainland?

It's Coxen hole ;) and I would assumed that's where they dock (which is also where NCL docks). Carnival goes to Mahogany Bay. It's about 20-30 minutes away since it's a little further than Mahogany Bay is. They have had boats running back and forth all day the 2 times we have been there with no problems. You are welcome to leave when you want, but once you get there you will NEVER want to leave. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much to do in Roatan, you will not be overwhelmed at any place is our experience. LFK has so much to do in one place. We have done other things but we would definitely go back to LFK again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oltuffnut Posted June 29, 2015 #697 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Just arrived home from RC cruise. Little French key is awesome for any group. Great for kids if watched around the cat and monkeys. Water perfect, drinks cheap. Cab fare was a 80 dollar attempt by the taxi **** at the gate. I said no way and started to walk he agreed to 40 for me and my wife both ways. The driver was nice and when we arrived at LF Key he said 40 $ I said no 40 on return, there was no problem. He picked us up and I gave him 50. The ride was about 20 minutes tops each way.
