SherPgh79 Posted February 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2018 We will be on a Carnival Cruise with a stop in Nasaau. We would like to do a beach day. Does anyone know where the nearest beach is and are there any within short walking distance? My hubby can't walk far distances. Are taxis or Uber available . I read about Junkanoo Beach, how close to Carnivals dock is that? Thanks for info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarcastic Mama Posted February 17, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 17, 2018 We walked there. About 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefish17 Posted February 18, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Almost 1 mile including the walk down the cruise ship pier. Junkanoo is officially Western Esplanade beach on Google maps. Sent from my SM-N950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefish17 Posted February 22, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I don't think there is much to see snorkeling there. Sent from my SM-N950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlsbgoing Posted February 25, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I did a resort at Cable Beach (Melia), much less crowded. That same, it’s not walkable. A taxi or bus (jitney) is required. The taxi was about 10-20 minutes and the jitney was about 25-30 minutes. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much for chairs and umbrellas? Or is it a public beach? Thanks, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlsbgoing Posted March 1, 2018 #9 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I can’t say as I chose to visit a private resort. I believe the cost was about $45 per person. When we arrived, several cabbies tried to lure us away and offered to take us to a free beach area nearby. We declined as I was looking forward to Melia. I believe that there is a free access area at Cable Beach. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
