lambs2 Posted February 14, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hi All,Could use your help for our upcoming cruise. Wanted to identify beaches at close proximity to the following ports Family friendly Thanks in advance Barbados St Kitts Antigua Tortola Samana Barbados: Crane beach St. Kitts : Never been there, sorry Antigua: Took a tour here but heard that the best beach and from what I saw very beautiful: Half Moon Bay Tortola: you MUST take the ferry to Virgin Gorda and the Baths! Samana: Playa Rincon (see my photo below!) it is across the island but well worth a taxi ride and/or boat ride there and back! There is in my opinion no good beach near the port.

Boogerbear Posted February 14, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2011 just got back from Serenade of the Seas - and based on advice I read in these postings recommending Valley Church Beach on Antigua, that is where we headed. And I'm SO GLAD we did! Excellent beach, friendly people, great beach food/bar at the Nest. You won't be sorry if you head there - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patseacruiser Posted February 14, 2011 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2011 In 2007 I went to Barbados and did an excursion on the Jolly Roger. It took us to a beach that had sand that was sort of pinkish/beige and felt like satin. The water was so clear you could stand chest high and see your feet and the fish swimming by. By I didn't get the name of the beach and low and behold the next year the Jolly Roger then went out of business. I have had no luck finding the name of that beach and wish I knew. Anyone know the beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beth51279 Posted February 14, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 14, 2011 St. Kitts -- Take a tour with Thenford Grey. I found him on CC years ago and he was AMAZING. We did a tour of the island and went to some great beaches :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
