dgrimesrn Posted July 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Has anyone done this excursion through RCI? We were going to do Big Beard's Half Day Cruise to Buck Island, but they only have the Full Day available. Any opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatonDoolittle Posted July 22, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Yes, I did it last year. Basically it is just a sail up and down the coast. You do not even loose sight of the ship. Nice sail, and LOTS of rum punch. They anchor in front of a beach and you can swim in and buy drinks or something to eat, or just enjoy the water for a while. However, there is no snorkeling, and no real sightseeing, just the flat coastline. I believe Big Beards leaves form C'sted (other side of the island), and goes to Buck Island to snorkel, so there is really no comparison. If you just want to relax on the water, take this one. If you want to snorkel, maybe you should look for another vendor that does a half day trip.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrimesrn Posted July 24, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted July 24, 2014 We've actually decided to do a beach day in St. Croix as we're doing a lot of sailing/catamaran/snorkeling for the remainder of our port intensive cruise:) Deciding between Buccaneer and Sand Castle, unless someone has another option? We do love a calm ocean/bay and a pool to dip into occasionally:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
