Creator's Key Takeaways

So, if you're looking for a beach day, Crazy Lobster is not the place to go.

But if you want good food, a novel, authentic experience, maybe it wasn't that authentic.

It was It was novel. There were a lot of shops. People were selling stuff.

So, overall, I really enjoyed Crazy Lobster. The food was excellent. The service was good.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Leave the ship around 10:30 or 11 AM to avoid the morning crowds at the port.
Put your name on the massage list at the Crazy Lobster bar area before you eat.
If you want a beach day, this is not the place to go.
Bring cash, but they also take Visa and Mastercard.
