Pirates Cove Questions

[cathi007]

OK I have been doing research on beaches and it seems Pirates cove is perfect for our family. 56, 53, 33, 29, 3, 1. The question is do we each have to pay to get in, or can we just rent chairs/umbrellas.

You can pay $8 each for chair rentals and shared umbrellas, or you can choose one of the package deals for ship wreck snorkeling, swimming with the turtles, etc. Cab fare each way should be about $5 per person unless you book the transport package, or you can walk from the port in about 20-30 min.

We booked thru Glory Tours and it was $15 per person US for transportation, beach chair, shared umbrella and the BEST rum punch of the week.  We loved it there.  It was such a beautiful beach, the softest sand and the prettiest water.  You can also add the swimming with turtles ahead of time or the day off. It got rave reviews from fellow cruisers. They offer a buffet lunch or an ala carte menu. Word of advice: If you order food, stay and wait for it.  It seems orders got lost if you left and then came back ten minutes later looking for your food.  The food was very tasty.  We opted for ala carte.  It was a great day and I would not hesitate to go back again next time we are in Barbados.  I plan on writing to them to see if they will share the punch recipe.

Thanks for the feedback - hope the rest of your cruise was just as enjoyable.
