swimgirl1 Posted July 28, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2015 We are taking a morning excursion for 3 hours, and then want to go to a nice beach not far from the port for a few hours. Preferably, not to busy, with maybe some shade or umbrellas/beach restaurant. Looking at Runaway Bay, Valley Church (been to Dickenson before) - any other ideas/opinions?

jerrib Posted July 29, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 29, 2015 We love Turner Beach (one over from Valley Church) It's a lot less crowded. We had them place our lounge chairs under the trees. They have a very nice beach bar/restaurant and decent restrooms. A few vendors have set up tables (they don't come to you, you go to them.....nice).

Trend Posted July 31, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 31, 2015 What is the water like there and sand with entrance to water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrib Posted August 2, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 2, 2015 When we were there, there were mild waves and only a slight drop entering the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How close is this to the Port/Ship - Taxi? or can we walk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks pretty far from the ship for a couple hours after an excursion. How long does the trip take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliaMS Posted January 3, 2016 #9 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Looking for a suggestion for a beach close to the ship for a couple hours after an excursion. Don't want to spend 30 minutes traveling each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
