It's a very small island and there's not a ton to do there, but I happen to think it's pretty nice. There's a large Hilton resort/casino on the north side of the island, and Resort World, which is a beach club where you can book an excursion to. To the south of the port is Alicetown and beyond that, Radio Beach - which is nice and rustic. There is also a free beach right at the end of the (very long) pier where the ship will tie up. There's also a very small amount of shops near the cruise pier beach.

 

Once you get off the ship, you have the option to either walk all the way down the pier, or take a tram. The tram will go north to the casino first, then Resorts World, then it will come back and make a stop at the shops and then finally, at the free beach. 

 

One of the popular things to do is rent a golf cart, since you can literally drive from one end of the island to the other in about 20-25 minutes. There are plenty of them for rent on the third tram stop. We rented one there, drove it around a while, stopped and enjoyed Radio Beach for a couple hours on the south tip of the island, and then headed back to the ship afterwards - and that was a pretty nice day overall.

Is the casino open?  I thought it was closed.
