Margaritaville, Jack's Shack, and the beach are all excellent options. 🇧🇸 Ocean Cay No excursion needed! If you'd like to splurge, consider renting a private cabana. We also recommend getting off the ship early to claim a great beach spot. ⭐ Honorable Mentions ⭐ 🇧🇿 Belize Private Reef & Shark Ray Alley Tour (Perfect for Groups) https://vi.me/ZL580 (Dorian can also customize private land tours to the Mayan Ruins.) 🇭🇳 Roatan Our favorite tour company. We've personally used them three different times. https://vi.me/YC539 🎥 Looking for more cruise port guides?
