Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm kind of I know where I'm kind of leaning to, but I think there's there's a downfall to one side and it's going to create a problem down the road.

I prefer a an island that I haven't been to a million times to go learn something about the city and and uh spend some money in inside the city.

Private islands are are for me almost perfect because I you know I have breakfast before I get off go there start drinking lay down in you know in the sun for a little bit in the water.

I really do see the the the other the other ports, Mex mostly Mexico and and the down in the Caribbean. Um, matter of fact, who was it? Mexico. No, might have been Bahamas.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you're going to a port you haven't been to, take a tour to see the island, culture, and history.
βœ“Consider private islands for a relaxed beach day with less worry about personal belongings.
