Western Caribbean Beach day

[vatofla2009]

We were looking forward to a beach day in Labadee on our cruise on the Reflection in February. But, Labadee was cancelled and Key West was added. Of the other stops...Cozumel, Grand Turk & Ocho Rios....can anyone recommend their favorite beach to spend a day and if it requires an excursion or just transportation to the beach. Would prefer no more than 20-30 minutes away from port.

Cozumel:

About 20 minute cab ride

Grand Turk is a beach day for most people. The cruise ship dock is right on a free beach.

 

Cozumel has several nice beaches, though.

I think you mean Grand Cayman? I don't believe Reflection goes to Grand Turk.

There are MANY options on Cozumel, and I would certainly make this a beach day, because there is always the small chance you won't be able to tender in Cayman in February. In Jamaica, we did an all inclusive day at Jewel Runaway Bay for around $90 including transportation. Good food, great drinks, beautiful property, ample space and chairs on the beach and at the pools....no hassles from outside vendors. WE will be returning in January and will probably choose this same option again.

We are on that cruise also. We are going to "beach" it on Grand Cayman. Hope you can hop on over and join our Roll Call.
