Creator's Key Takeaways

So, we arrived in Cabanas around 6:50 and you can come inside, wash your hands, and get a table, but they're not open yet.

So, being that we are right next to Serenity Bay, the observation tower is pretty close. So, that's my plan of where I'm going to bike to.

We have just finished our dinner at Enchanted Garden and unfortunately our dinners have been taking much longer than we are accustomed to.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓If you have a cabana, go to the bike rental station at the entrance of the Mickey and Minnie cabanas to get your free rental.
✓Bring long sleeves and layers for Castaway Cay, as it can be windy and chilly even on sunny days.
✓If you want to avoid crowds at the Serenity Bay observation tower, go early.
✓For the best show experience with bubbles and confetti, sit on the bottom deck in the front half of the theater.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting to the new cabanas — You don't need to go to the Serenity Bay check-in hut; you can walk directly to the Cove Cabanas entrance.
Beach terrain and safety — Be aware of a significant drop-off near cabanas 11-17; there are ropes in place for safety.
What to do on Castaway Cay — You can rent bikes for free and explore the island, including the observation tower.
