Ziplining?

[3Boys2Luv]

We went ziplining with South Shore http://southshorezipline.com/cruiseshippers/. We had kids ranging from 8 -12 and they (including the adults) had a great time. We were a group of 8 people which was perfect. Friends we met went ziplining through the cruise line and said it was soo crowded they just wanted to leave. Another couple went with another company and said it was really disorganized with a lot of time spent going back and forth, I can tell you it was NOT Victor Bodden that they used.

Can you give more detailed info on the ZIP line part and did you also do the beach part? If you did the beach was it West Bay or somewhere else?

We just did the ziplining and went to the beach after the shuttle brought us back. The beach is right next to the cruise ship and the experience is free. It worked out perfectly. Not sure where the beach is that they offer. After ziplining, we went to the beach, back on the ship to eat, and then back out to the beach as it was that close. There were 13 ziplines to go through, most were above the canopy which offered great views as you travelled. For the 8 of us, we had 3 guides making the process very smooth. Training instructions were provided prior to ziplining, with one practice run before getting into the bigger lines.

Thanks. We are going with Bodden's Zip & Dip as the beach is at West Beach were the best snorkeling right off the beach over a reef. All for $65pp.

I've heard the walk/hike to get to the zip line itself is somewhat strenuous. Is this true? I have a back issue & a long walk is not good for me. I could do the zip line it's just the walking that would be the problem.
