Creator's Key Takeaways

I'll be honest, I don't remember the the lunch being this good. You know, I remember it being okay. But maybe we're just hungry, too.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Try to go to Guys Burger or Shaq's Big Chicken for a non-busy lunch to avoid the buffet crowds.
✓If you want a less crowded beach at Grand Turk, go to the right from the pier for a less rocky and crystal clear water area.
✓Book shore excursions through Shore Excursion Group for cheaper prices and easier access, but have cash on hand for the remainder.
✓At Celebration Key, bring water shoes for the beach as it can be rocky.
✓For Pearl Cove at Celebration Key, consider the day pass for a more exclusive experience, but check prices as they can vary.

Join us as we set sail on a 6 day cruise aboard Carnival Mardi Gras! Ports of Call: 🇹🇨Grand Turk - we rented a golf cart to explore the island - stopped by the Grand Turk Lighthouse, fed some friendly donkeys and chilled on the beach with the most incredible view of our ship anchored offshore. 🇩🇴Amber Cove (Dominican Republic) - we took on the epic 27 waterfalls of Damajagua, an adventure full of jumps with the highest being 25ft, went through some natural slides deep in the jungle - definitely one for the bucket! ☀️Celebration Key - we spent the day at Pearl Cove which is an adult only area and much more exclusive at Carnival newest private destination - Celebration Key.
