Great beach and lunch buffet behind the dunes. There is a ship (Bar) on the beach a little way down that servers drinks so bring your S & S card with you when you go for a walk. See you onboard !!

We did a great zip line tour in Amber Cove 3 yrs ago. Very much looking forward to this cruise.

They took away Ocho Rios and Grand Cayman and replaced with Bimini and Half Moon Cay. I am alright with the change as we Love HMC but never been to Bimini. Anyone been to Bimini that can give a couple of highlights please. https://cruiseradio.net/bimini-cruise-port-information-photos-need-to-know/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting to see what will open up in our ports for the Horizon Sept 12th, since they made the switch there are no excursions currently available yet Whelp, I’m fresh off the Horizon and we made port in Bimini. There was about 10 excursions from Carnival. Ranging from beach chair rentals to deep sea fishing to more beach chair rentals. Honestly not a whole lot. Kinda what you’d expect to see at a beach type place. I don’t recall seeing diving though unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would have been happy to just hang out on the ship and take a nap.

imola Posted July 28, 2021 #43 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Can anyone share why Cozumel is being removed from so many itineraries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KmomChicago Posted July 28, 2021 #44 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Will be interested as more ships visit Bimini to hear the reviews. Its claim to fame over the years has been its proximity to Florida - the closest of the Bahamas to the continental US. Definitely not as developed for giant cruise ship visits as some other ports, but as noted, this seems to have come up as a surprise and there is potential to do more at a later time.

Rare EngIceDave Posted July 28, 2021 #47 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Enjoy it. Try some local conch fritters. Make sure to try to sauce too. If someone rents golf carts, that'd be the best way around. I got one when I stayed at the Resorts World Hilton there. Casino is in there and some nice restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
