Orient Beach condition

[jordanaire]

We were at Orient Beach last Thursday and there were thousands of people there. The seaweed is still there, but not covering the beach like many have suggested. In fact, we found a stretch of beach over 300 yds long with no seaweed at all. We stayed mainly where the jet skis are rented. We would have stayed there all day if it weren't for the tour we were on. You can still swim without seaweed bothering you. And as for the smell, we didn't notice it at all.

Thanks for the update. Orient Beach seems to be getting better and better. We'll be there for the first time in April! :D

Yes..there is a jet ski rental right about in the middle of the beach. Mares (I think) is the name of the rental place. They also have parasailing, scuba dive equipment, etc.

We are currently on Orient Beach at La Playa which is next door to La Playa. If you want more time at the [ATTACH]338446[/ATTACH][ATTACH]338447[/ATTACH][ATTACH]338448[/ATTACH]beach. Take a taxi, much cheaper. I just ask the cost, 2 people from pier to Orient $20, one way, have 5 or more, $7 pp. If you want less beach and a tour---we use Bernard 's Tour. 😄😄😄😄Hardly any seaweed [ATTACH]338445[/ATTACH]

I figured that out[emoji2] we went ahead and booked that excursion through RCCL. Thanks again for your experience. Nice to know the seaweed is improving. Looking forward to having sand between my toes instead of snow on my boots[emoji32]

At this point I'd rather deal with some seaweed than this snow/ice mix we are getting right now in CT!!! :eek:

 

Cant wait to be laying on Orient Beach!!! :cool:
