boatyard beach area

can anyone provide walking directions from the cruise port to the beach area the boatyard? thanks

 

I can recommend Lobsters Alive, which is next to the Boatyard, but further (50 yds) from the cruise terminal. it's $5.00 for each lounge chair, and an additional $5.00 for the umbrella. You will get a ticket for each chair (or umbrella) you purchase and this entitles you to a free drink. We had the rum punch which was great.

Walking directions from cruise port: It's a 20 minute stroll from the cruise port keeping the sea too your right hand side, walk through the taxi/bus stands at port, walk out the main gate, and hang a right (this street is Princess Alice Hwy) all the way till you see Carlisle Wharf on your right hand side. After you pass this place, the street will turn right and you will also go right. Walk till you see the water, and then you must turn left, and now the street is called The Wharf Street. Once you see the first bridge (the Square), go right onto the bridge, walk right through, and keep walking straight. This is now Bay Street. Walk for about 200yards and hang a right on any of these streets. The beach will be right there.

Hi Terry. What is the difference in the boatyard and the Lobsters alive. We spent a few hours at the Hilton, but wished we could have stayed longer as the beach was great. Has the boatyard also got a beach. we heard that alot of the crew spent time here on there day off.

Hi Jack, they are right next door to each other and therefore share the same strech of beach. The difference is the boatyard is geared up for a younger/family age group, it has rope swings and water floatation devices, whereas Lobster alive is more suited to couples who just want to chill out. :cool:
