Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas

Great Stirrup Cay
is a pretty
little island. I thought there was going to be a bigger beach area though.
There's not much sand between the rocks and the water, so try to get there
early so you can find a good spot. Bring goggles...there are so many
beautiful fish that swim right up to the shore. Would have been better if
we had goggles. And one big TIP: BRING WATER SHOES! The ocean floor is
very sharp and slimy. People were getting hurt while walking around in the
water. There is also a little market behind the bbq area, but it's
expensive compared to Nassau. The BBQ was not very good...definitely not
as good as the food on the ship. Definitely eat breakfast before you leave
the ship. There is also a cool Caribbean style band playing music...nice
touch. The water was beautiful and the ferry ride was very short (and very
bumpy, so sit down). Overall, this was a fun beach day!
