@@tjandcj123 hello. No I didn’t have a map. I’ve been to Nassau at least 8 times so I know my way (mostly) around areas near the port. This is an easy walk but plan on it taking 15-20 min depending on how fast you walk. Enjoy your time in Nassau!

It wasn’t that bad. about a mile there and a mile back. You can also catch a taxi but it’s like $15-20 just to go for a 3-5 minute ride. Worth it though if you don’t want to walk.

I went to Junkanoo Beach in April. It was amazing. The beach was Beautiful..the drinks were delicious and the music was great. Police were everywhere so I felt very protected. Only downfall is that the winds were high so we couldn't do any water sports.

Yes it’s definitely beautiful. I did say the next time we go we will try some of the water sports so we will definitely consider the wind before walking over. Thanks!

Hey RacQuelle. I know has been a while since you went to Junkanoo Beach. The last time I went (2019) their lounge chairs were not the best, have then gotten better ones? I am planning a trip on the Oasis and may stop pass Junkanoo versus going to Margaritaville. Thanks.

Curious, my family and I 6 of us including my 80 year old Mom will be going. Is there a way we can get transported from the ship to the end of dock so she doesn't have to walk that far? We will be taking a taxi once at the entrance. Thanks in advance.
@MHFamilyAdventures2 жыл бұрын
Yes there is. You just need to go to guest services and ask for a ride to the entrance of the port. It’s only available for those who need assistance so I’m not sure if they’ll let your entire family get on. But it’s a golf kart. I’m not 100% sure but I think there is a meeting place right outside the ship for those needing assistance. Definitely double check at guest services.

You’ll have a great time. We almost always get a cabin on the lido but honestly after our last cruise on Carnival Sunrise we had problems with kids/teens running the halls late at night, tearing down door decorations, and just being loud. I’m not ok with being between decks 6 and 7. (Don’t do deck 8 if lido deck is on 9 because you can hear all of the movement of chairs and tables).

For this cruise I stayed at the Embassy Suites Orlando Airport (there is a video on my channel). Embassy Suites offers a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel. I believe they stop running around 1-2am. I then Ubered to the port for about $60 for the 3 of us which is cheaper than the $35 offered by Carnival and GoPort.
