skya Posted July 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Has anyone gone to Bannister Island recently? I need updated reviews. Is this the Carnival Beach Break excursion? Edited July 24, 2014 by skya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted July 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2014 IIRC, Bannister Island changed owners a year or so back (they were on House Hunters or Beach Hunters or some such reality show)and isn't taking cruise line excursions. I think Carnival uses Geoff's Cay or Water Cay now. I'll stand corrected if someone has done this excursion in the last 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bambilin Posted July 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 25, 2014 This is from June 14th. We are sailing the Dream 08/24 and I was looking for info on the Beach Break as well: cruisegal96 Cool Cruiser Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: alabama Posts: 206 Just back from our Carnival Dream cruise. The Island Beach Break is at Water Caye. It's ok, not great. Plenty of new wooden loungers, very rocky shell filled sand on beach. Right side when exiting the pier is better than the left side. Water trampolines were great if you have kids, ours loved it. Not really anything to look at here for snorkeling, but you could pay additional at the island for a snorkel tour via boat off the island. We didn't do that. We didn't include the food in the ticket thinking we could get more options, but you pretty much still get "chicken or fish" with red beans & rice & we got some nachos. Not much in food options other than that. Chicken was BBQ & very yummy, red beans & rice were very dry. Great staff on the boat that picked us up from ship & took us to island. Just an ok excursion, probably wouldn't go back. In talking to others on our ship, the ziplining in Belize seemed to be the best excursion to take.
