BeagleAgility Posted January 21, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I was recently on a Navigator of the Seas cruise. Going on an Anthem cruise very soon. On Coco Cay - there were shopping "cabins". I did not get to go see them. Do they require cash or are they connected to the ship where you can use your SeaPass card? Thank you.

Rare thrifty99 Posted January 21, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 21, 2020 We will be in Coco Cay tomorrow and were told to bring cash to purchase anything in the local marketplace shops where locals sell goods. They cannot take your SeaPass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean cabanas, those can be rented with your SeaPass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ReneeFLL Posted January 21, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 21, 2020 The shopping marketplace people come from other islands. They aren't connected to Royal so you will need cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeagleAgility Posted January 21, 2020 Author #5 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Thank you. That is exactly what I needed to know. As I said, I was there at the end of December. I walked around the island and saw the "vendor shops" (small buildings) but did not get a chance to stop at them. I will make sure I have cash.

Diver2014 Posted January 21, 2020 #6 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) I bought a very brightly colored T shirt from one of the vendors last Saturday when we were there. It was $20 but you can see it from far, far away - neon brights. The vendors are just to the left after you cross the bridge from the pier and I must say, even though the wind was blowing 30 mph, they were very friendly and inviting (although only a few were open because of the weather). They take cash and credit cards. Edited January 21, 2020 by Diver2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schlimazel_traveler Posted January 21, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 21, 2020 We visited during the first week of January. The vendors accepted sea passes (charge to ship account) until about 90 minutes before "all-aboard" time. The prices were really high. My guests paid $35 each for long-sleeved t-shirts. Sweatshirts ran over $50. We missed our Nassau stop so it was the only opportunity for Bahamas souvenirs. If you have the option, I'd suggest shopping in Nassau.
