Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas
Brent Jones
We
were on the first tender, Gene took one of the first chairs and umbrellas,
Robert, Larry and I walked a ways down the beach and there weren’t many
people there. The beach is very pretty there. Robert had the energy to
walk down the coast about 15 minutes and discovered another beach that was
deserted. He said it was very beautiful. A couple of people did show up
there later to snorkel, he said. NCL has some nice facilities on this
island: hammocks, rest rooms, dining area. The ship sends over a barbeque
lunch with all the trimmings-ribs, chicken, burgers, hot dogs, desserts,
salads, French fries, etc. It went well with a beach day. There is also a
straw market which people from the Bahamas staff. It’s nice if you haven’t
bought all your souvenirs. Also-the Spa people came over and set up a tent
where you could buy a massage for $1/minute! We stayed until about 2:30
then took the tender back for a rest before the evening.
