downeasternercruisin' Posted May 23, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2005 We have seen conflicting reviews of the Blackbeard Cay excursion, with most of the negatives coming from around Christmas 2004. Please post any recent reviews. We sail in two weeks, and we are trying to make some last minute decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubagirrl Posted May 23, 2005 #3 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Blackbeards Cay is a small island off the coast of Cable Beach with an open beach area, tons of lounges, grill and daiguiri hut. It's smaller than Blue lagoon, but bigger than pearl Island, and usually pretty busy with people from the cruise lines. There is some shaded area and a couple of hammocks in the pines. The back side of the island is shared with Sandals " Private Island". It's a fun day at the beach. http://www.globaldd.com/images/projects/dolphin3.jpg http://www.globaldd.com/images/projects/dolphin4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaParrotHead Posted June 3, 2005 #4 Share Posted June 3, 2005 and the beach itself was really nice. not rocky, plenty of chairs, refreshments readily available, clean changing facilities, freshwater showers to rinse off. the only thing I was sorry about is that we were only there for an hour and a half! :) I'd say either do that or Atlantis. The town of Nassau itself is kind nasty and dirty and Atlantis would be my other choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
