screagan Posted January 21, 2005 #26 Share Posted January 21, 2005 TupeloHoney,It is a very beautiful beach, the best I have ever been on. The food and drinks were great, the crew very entertaining. My avatar is a picture of that beach. Happy Cruising:) Best ever been on??? Is it the actual beach, the water, or the surroundings that made you say this? The avatar is quite small; does anyone have any pictures of this beach, boat, water, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblind Posted January 21, 2005 #27 Share Posted January 21, 2005 The name of the beach is Cotton Ground Beach, below is a link to a picture of it. The reason I liked it was because of the sand, deep and hot, the water was clean and refreshing, the surroundings were quiet, no people, no buildings, felt like a deserted island. Just sun, sand, surf and fun. http://www.nevisisland.com/gallery.htm Happy Cruising:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traceybell Posted February 5, 2005 #28 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Good morning everyone. We've booked the Fan-Ta-Sea in March. Can anyone tell us about the beach stop? I've heard about the food and drinks but do they provide any chairs on the beach or floaties for the water? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblind Posted February 5, 2005 #29 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Hi Traceybell, Sorry, no beach chairs or water toys, it is a deserted beach. The sand is quite hot, so you need to take a towel with you and get to some shade. The crew is great, you will have a good time. Happy Cruising:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseygirl3 Posted February 10, 2005 #30 Share Posted February 10, 2005 We, too, have booked this excursion and are interested in going to Sunshine's on the Beach, which is located next door to the Four Seasons Hotel on Pinney's Beach. Does anybody know how far this is from where the catamaran docks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel_Sonoma Posted February 26, 2006 #31 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Sunshine's Beach Bar is just about 100 yards from the 4 Seasons, very nice little shack.Reminds me of Bomba's Shack. All the cruise/sail ships stop here. For some fun photos of Sunshine's Beach Bar see these photos:) http://www.nevis1.com/sunshines.html PS watch out for the killer bees!!! My hubby and I like the odd drink, but lord do these pack a punch:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josieann Posted February 27, 2006 #32 Share Posted February 27, 2006 I don't swim - will it be a problem from me to get to the beach from the boat? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambiz Posted March 1, 2006 #33 Share Posted March 1, 2006 It will not be a problem for you to get to the beach from the boat. The catamaran goes right up to the shore. From what I recall, when you step off of the ladder you the water will be about knee deep, so there will be no need for you to swim. The same when you are ready to go back on the boat..

josieann Posted March 1, 2006 #34 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Ambiz - thanks so much for replying to my concern about having to swim to the beach. I was nervous about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathylene Posted March 2, 2006 #35 Share Posted March 2, 2006 We will be on the Golden Princess which will be in St. Kitts, from 7:30 AM - 2:30 PM. The excursion is almost 7 hours long. That means most of it is in the early morning. It seems a bit early to be drinking. Is it still worth that much money- $120 pp? You all make it sound so wonderful, but our ship's times concern us. Thanks for any input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambiz Posted March 8, 2006 #36 Share Posted March 8, 2006 If you book the tour through the ship, there should be noi concern about the time as the excursion will get you back to the ship prior to its departure. It's a great excursion and I'm yet to hear anyone who has experienced it say that they did not enjoy it. About drinking that early in the morning, you don't have to start drinking alcohol if you figure that it's too early for you. You can opt for something soft like ting or orange juice.

happytobehere Posted April 7, 2006 #37 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Grr, after reading how great it sounds we went to book this excursion, but we are on the "waitlist". I signed us up anyway (on the Golden Princess), curious if anyone has been waitlisted but still made the trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OC PAT Posted April 9, 2006 #38 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I am a diabetic and sugar drinks are a no-no. Do they offer bottled water and diet drinks? I have had my knees replaced and have trouble climbing back into boats. We will be on the Crown Princess in Nov. It seems if the ladder is in the front it will be a steep climb back onto the ship, correct? If you do not have alot of strength do you think one could get back on the ship from the snorkle? the beach? OC PAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinsmomct Posted April 11, 2006 #39 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Since it's not a "party boat," how appropriate would this be for a couple of 10 year olds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
