anjanetted Posted February 8, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Anyone been to the Boat Yard?? If so would you suggest it? If you only had one day here what would you choose?? I have a family of five and we are pretty active and love the water but also want to see the best things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joetop2467 Posted February 9, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2011 You can get to the same beach by going to Lobster Alive which has free access and is next to the Boatyard. You can then check out the Boat Yard and see if you want to pay for admission. We walked in the opposite direction and rented two chairs and an umbrella for $10 total. Much less crowded than Boat Yard. It is our favorite beach and we walk from the ship. We have done this three times and it is always the highlight of our cruise.

spammie Posted February 11, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2011 If you use the beach at Lobster Alive can you purchase drinks there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travellingmom58 Posted February 15, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2011 We visited this Beach Facility in January and it was great, it was myself , husband, three kids ages 11-16 and my 2 elderly parents. It is close by to the Port, and offers everything you would need for a day at the beach. We paid 12 us per person and this included a beach chair, umbrella, one drink, use of ocean trampolines, rope swing, climbing slice, dive board, there are showers and restrooms, a bar and restaurant. There are persons on the beach who do jet skiing , snorkelling and so on but you rent that stuff separately, you just have to get the price agreed on before you take the activity and I am sure you will have a great time. Plus we got a free ride back to the ship in ht afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betatlake Posted March 6, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2011 The ride back is part of the 12.00 dollar entry fee to the Boatyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcvtmom Posted March 7, 2011 #8 Share Posted March 7, 2011 We've been to the Boatyard twice, on previous cruises. We plan to return this summer on our Victory cruise. It's a great place for all ages. The free ride back to the ship is also a bonus!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
