Creator's Key Takeaways

One of my favorite places to visit. It is beautiful.

The tram is included in your cruise fair and it will take you to all the main stops around the island.

The Oasis Lagoon, which again is the largest freshwater pool in all of the Caribbean.

The cove to me is my favorite spot on the entire island, and I just love everything about it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get off the ship early to avoid long lines for the tram.
Take the nature trail to the Cove Beach for a more secluded experience.
Ask for the special chicken sandwich at the snack shack.
