Creator's Key Takeaways

It's a real shame we've we've only got one night left cuz we would 100% be eaten there again.

It was fabulous. Um yeah, I had the uh the vegan starter mane and dessert and they were all wow.

You get a lot for your money. Ticks all the boxes for us.

It's our favorite place to spend the last day of a cruise.

YouTube Video Description↓

Barbados is one of the most popular Caribbean cruise ports, but is The Boatyard on Carlisle Bay actually worth it? In this vlog we spend the day at The Boatyard during our overnight stay in Barbados and show you exactly what you get for your money. We break down the costs, what’s included, beach facilities, snorkelling, food and drink options, and whether it delivers on the hype. We also briefly show what it’s like clearing immigration onboard before heading ashore, so you know what to expect if your cruise includes an overnight stop. We stay right through to sunset after a full day of sun, sea and proper Caribbean vibes before heading back onboard to pack those suitcases (how has the cruise gone that fast?) and enjoy dinner at The Olive Grove to round off the trip. If you’re cruising to Barbados and wondering whether The Boatyard is the right beach day for you, this video should help you decide.
