Castles & Coastlines
✨Casual CreatorCastles & Coastlines description on YouTube:
Hi everyone and welcome to our channel! We are #ukvlog here and you will find reports of our trips, reviews of #cruise ships and other bits of travel advice that we’ve gathered along the way. We are also huge #disney fans, so there will be a fair amount of the mouse content in here too. I generally use a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 to shoot the majority of the videos using a DJI mic mini. I also use a GOPRO MAX (360 camera) and iPhone 16 Pro Max for some shots. I use Da Vinci Resolve free edition for editing. Hope you enjoy watching the videos and following along on our travels Feel free to comment or send us a message if you have any questions Kate and Ben (previosuly Brits Abroad!)

Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Castles & Coastlines.
Leave plenty of time to walk from the ship to the front of the port.
If you're worried about pickpockets, shop at the port market where items are guaranteed to be made in the Bahamas.
When leaving the port, politely say no to tour and taxi offers; they are not pushy.
Reserve shows as soon as you board via the app.
Use the Diamond Lounge for coffee and drinks if you have the status.
Book a balcony room on the hump for extra space at the same price.
If staying at Grand Helios, there's no need to get to the queue an hour before park opening.
Come to Cafe Siren before it starts raining because it gets quite busy.
