What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œThe french fries were fantastic. The conch balls were fantastic as well. Excellent meal here at Crabbing Tings in Junkanoo.”

✨CasualBucation

β€œThere was a lot of delicious food and drink on this cruise, but Chops took it to the next level. Everything was well seasoned and cooked to perfection.”

✨CasualBucation

β€œBut our favorite spot in Nassau is Junkanoo Beach, a free public beach just a short walk from the cruise port.”

✨CasualBucation

β€œFor Caribbean night, our meal was fantastic. But the highlight was absolutely the main dining room staff going above and beyond with the entertainment.”

✨CasualBucation

β€œThe chicken was juicy. It was flavorful. It was just cooked perfectly. So, so good.”

✨CasualBucation
The Watch-outs

β€œwe do not recommend Atlanta no direction it's pandemonium getting off the ship”

✨CasualBucation

β€œthis meal will sadly be the end of our first day tradition at beaches and cream”

✨CasualBucation

β€œWe're hoping tonight will redeem, you know, shop's reputation for us. I've heard from a lot of people that it goes by ship and I think we just had a bad experience.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Bucation.

  1. Junkanoo Beach is a free public beach located a short walk from the cruise port.

  2. You can rent chairs and get drink service at Crab and Ting's on Junkanoo Beach.

  3. Use cash at Crab and Ting's, though they do accept credit cards.

  4. If you have a chance on Caribbean night here on Odyssey of the Seas, highly recommend the Caribbean style chicken, the pork chop, and chicken ka.

  5. Pack water shoes to protect against coral rock on the beach.

  6. Give restaurants a second chance if your first experience was lackluster.

  7. Visit Lori Wilson Park for free activities including boardwalks through mangroves and ocean dunes.

  8. If you want to avoid crowds, visit the week after Thanksgiving.
