dsvd79 Posted January 21 #1 Share Posted January 21 Hello- It has been a long time since I have been to Labadee. We always went to Adrenaline Beach, but I really don't like all the rocks in the water even with water shoes. What is the best beach that a nonsuite person can go to in Labadee?

Columbus Cove is the best. No rocks and some shade. Pretty much soft sand on beach and water bottom. It is farthest from the docks but you can take the tram if you don’t want to walk. Nellies is okay. Adrenaline should be avoided because of the sun and rocks. Passengers end up there because it is closest to the docks and also the beach attendants steer them there.

NoShoes2 Posted January 21 #3 Share Posted January 21 We enjoy Nellie's Beach, no rocks, but it can get a bit crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, there was a water taxi at the dock making one-way trip to the Columbus Cove side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crew uses it to move some supplies from the ship to the food area near Columbus Cove. If the water taxi is still running there will be a sign on the dock for the taxi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching DH go into the water and I thought to myself "he's walking so gingerly, he looks like he's 90 years old!" Well, I went to go in and I was carrying a float. I put the float in the water and it sort of got away from me. I leaned forward to get it and I fell flat on my face. The sand was so soft under my feet I couldn't get a grip and get up without the assistance of the life guard. I was so embarassed! I guess I provided the comic reflief for the day. Does anyone else have a problem with the soft sand and the slope getting in the water? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also found sand soft , plenty of life guards to help , my younger and more fit wife had no issues, but this 70 plus did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was our one and only experience on that beach. A cynical RCI suite perk maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what you like in a beach. I love big waves. Some people don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is before the dock was opened they didn’t allow passengers to to use what is now called Adrenaline Beach. There were keep off, no swimming, that claimed dangerous currents. Etc.
