Junkanoo Beach

[barbiecruiser27]

I've been to Nassau countless times, and I'm embarrassed to say I've never been to  Junkanoo beach! I'd love to try it out on our next sailing. I have heard it is tricky to get there. Any directions recommendations? Also, any general info/tips & tricks?

 

Thanks!

It’s on West Bay Street, about a 15-20 minute walk from the cruise port.

It’s primary advantage is convenience, as it’s a small, tacky beach just past the Hilton. They have good drink specials if you drink a lot, but it’s certainly NOT a scenic beach with good snorkeling, etc. You can rent chairs and umbrella’s.

It’s certainly not on our list of places to see before you die.

My fami,y walked over there once when our ship missed the private island and docked early in Nassau, not impressed at all.
