RCCL Secret Sands Beach Excursion..

Has anybody done this tour with Royal, or know anything about it? We get in to STT 12pm so would like a nice beach, quiet surf, no rocks, etc, and this looks nice from the description at least...take that for what it is worth.

Megans we have done, Sapphire I could consider but not crazy about it being rocky having young kids with us..St.John I would love to do but the tour calls for 3.5 hours, and I think you need a whole day to really enjoy it...

Someone has branded Lindquist/Smith Bay beach as "Secret Sands". They are just finishing up restrooms and other amenities, so I expect the excursion is a new one.

RCCL has branded...I have read there isn't much there yet so hoping it may be done by end of next month....

It is being operated by the Magens Bay Authority as part of the territorial park system. They have been working on some infrastructure at an unusually rapid rate. I have heard the bathrooms are open. Some people are happy about this "improvement", others liked the beach in its pristine condition.

thanks for the reply, hope more changes

Anyone have any more info on this excursion? There is only one review on the RCI website about it, and it says drinks and snacks are included (alcoholic, also). The description of the excursion doesn't mention that, though. I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who's been on this excursion. TIA!

I did this excursion in March from the Allure. It's a beautiful beach (see photos below)I don't recall any snacks but I do know there was rum punch and beer included! The excursion is limited to 50 people so there are not a lot of people there. There are bathrooms in a trailer as well. The only negative I had was the length of time. It was about half hour each direction and maybe 3 hours at the beach. I would have enjoyed more time at the beach. Highly recommended if you're looking for a beach day away from the crowds.

Looks beautiful Mike. Thanks for posting and reporting back.

Do you remember if there were any beach toys or anything you could rent?

P.S. If you like what you see and you want more time on island, return for a land-based stay. No one will tell you how long to stay on the beach. ;)

I don't recall anything to rent or any beach toys.

We took Royal's excursion to Secret Beach. We plan to go back again when the Allure visits in February (my 70th birthday cruise). Sign up early... as it is limited as to the number of people on the beach. We sometime staring out over the water and looking at the distant islands....trying to burn that image into our minds.:)

Lindqvist Beach is gorgeous!

Are chairs and umbrellas available and included?

Chairs yes, umbrellas not when we were there in March

If anyone has seen the new Direct TV commercial with Hannah Davis and the talking horse, it filmed at this Beach! I thought it looked familiar!!!

Our group of nine just booked this for our November cruise....super.excited.and.can.not.wait!!!!

We are really excited about going on this excursion. Are the new bathrooms open (not the portable toilets)?

How long does it take to get to the beach from the pier, and how much beach time do you get?

Glad we are booked for this on Celebrity in Jan 06....looks really beautiful.

Appreciate the posts and beautiful photos!

Not the commercial but a funny behind the scenes look.

Are there any shade trees? My daughter loves the beach, but burns very easily!

Yes lots of natural shade along the beach

Is this excursion offered on the Oasis?

The "Hannah and the Horse" beach looks really fantastic on TV!
