Goingaway Posted November 16, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I know the excursion for this is private island beach break thru Carnival, but does anyone know if you have to book thru the cruise, or are there water shuttles at the port that you can take over to this island??? I did go to a couple of private tour companies and one was charging a little more than carnival per person and the other one included things like snorkeling that we werent interested in. We would love to just go sit on the beach, shop, eat and drink. Pam :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familycruising4us Posted November 17, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I was in the same boat (no pun intended) as you. I found the best deal for us was thru Carnival. The plus, too, is that they take you directly from the ship to the island, and then afterwards we have the option to go into town, or just head back to the ship. We weren't interested in snorkeling/manatee trips, so this was the best option. And a free drink, I'll take it. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjkcubs Posted November 18, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Can anyone tell me what the cost for this excursion is through Carnival. I have read a couple of places it is $42, but I guess my main question is do they charge children full price? Or a discounted rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashwl Posted November 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 21, 2008 When I emailed them they said to just go through the ship. However, I want to snorkle and the ship doesnt offer that. What company did you find that has snorkling on its trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Children are 38.00. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisanRon Posted November 25, 2008 #6 Share Posted November 25, 2008 We were at Bannister Island last week off of the Legend. The tour is 43.00 a person. They do have a snorkel tour you can take once you get there. It is 20.oo. You go to see the reef 2nd only in size to the Great Barrier reef in Austraila. It was very nice and the water was warm. The best way to go to the island is from the ship, otherwise you would need to tender into Belize about 15 minutes and then take a boat to the island. We only saw ship tenders come to the island the day we were there. Be sure to look for the monkey, he was in the tree by the gift shops, he entertained all the people, it was great!

Goingaway Posted November 28, 2008 Author #7 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hi, Thanks for all the info, I did book this excursion thru Carnival - I was surprised that it was already available seeing the cruise isn't until April. Does anywone know if the Island gets crowded, or do they limit the amount of people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
