Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Shannon Ford.

  1. Bring towels from the ship for the pool.

  2. Get to Monkey Island early if you want to do the aviary.

  3. Try to get back from port early to do ziplining or Ultimate Abyss with no line.

  4. Give yourself at least an hour for laser tag, as it includes check-in and waiting time.

  5. Try the zip line while in port to avoid lines and go multiple times.

  6. If you're not pool people, a casita may not be necessary, but it can be a nice splurge for a chill day.

  7. Book the Rasul Spa treatment for a couples experience.

  8. Arrive early to secure pool chairs on sea days.
