We were at the turtle farm in 2005 and really enjoyed it for the kids.

 

Look at their website today they have really expanded what they have

now. When we were there they were recovering from the hurricane ...

 

Has any gone to the park lately. Can you spend all day there?

 

DS who is 11 loves turtles. He would love to go again. But don't want

to spend too much time there if there not much to do.

I went there in April with my 12 and 13 year olds. We spent 1/2 a day there. It would depend if you like to swim alot. After checking out the turtles, iguanas, sharks and bird aviary we went snorkeling and then we bought lunch at the restuarant and took it over to the pool and ate and swam the rest of the time. On the way out we checked out the shops. The pool is a walk in and very nice and quiet. They have shaded areas and a water fall. The place was pretty empty. The food was priced as expected for a tourist place. There is a bar. There is also certain time they feed the birds in the aviary but we missed it. I think there was also a nature walk. We booked right though Boatswain and it only cost $112.00 for 2 adults & 2 kids. We got there around 10:30 am and our ship was leaving at 3:00pm.

We, 7 adults, 1 teen & 2 toddlers are going end of July. I just phoned them with questions:

 

1. If our ship does not come to port do we get a refund? Yes!

 

2. Are there lockers? They are on order but security and lifeguards will watch your things if left on the chairs at the beach.

 

3. Free Transportation? When? Where? - after you reserve online you will be contacted with where to meet.

 

4. Can we leave & come back the same day? (DNiece & her DH are on Inspiration which will be there for 2 days) Yes. your band is good for the whole day.

 

5. No outside food/drink, but ok to have things for the toddlers if needed.

 

My big issue was the refund if we miss GC.
