Creator's Key Takeaways

My advice to you is do not book a beach escape through PO. Just book one yourself.

We'd recommend this trip. Yeah, we'll talk to you more about it in a bit when we get back to the ship.

It is what you make of it. And we've both had a lovely time.

Just wash your hands. If we haven't learned anything from covid then we as a race must just wash your hands.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do not book a beach escape through P&O; book a taxi yourself.
Take seasick or travel sick tablets, especially for windy roads in St. Lucia.
Wash your hands frequently to avoid getting ill on the ship.
Leave a set of clothes out for the next day when packing.
Ask for change back in US dollars when shopping in Caribbean islands.

YouTube Video Description

Cruising the Caribbean part 2 - Join us for the second week of our incredible Caribbean cruise! Over the last seven days, we explored some of the most beautiful islands, from relaxing on the stunning Jolly Beach in Antigua to venturing deep into Grenada’s rainforest, where we visited a chocolate factory and met some playful Mona monkeys. In St. Lucia, we had a delicious experience at Hotel Chocolate, and in Barbados, we took on an adrenaline-filled 4x4 Jeep adventure before unwinding on a breathtaking sunset cruise. But the journey didn’t end there—our flight home came with a not-so-sweet surprise at Barbados Airport!
