Creator's Key Takeaways

So, the key definitely is get here early.

This is probably my favorite bar on the entire ship. It's called Bubbles.

Oh my god, it's so much fun.

We're here at 8:00, a little bit after 8, and there's hardly anyone here.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get to Magens Bay early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds.
Bring cash for transportation ($15/person each way), entrance fees ($7/person), and chair rentals ($20/chair).
Participate in the Crazy Quest event for fun.

Later, we enjoyed a fun evening bar-hopping through Central Park, Surfside, and Playmakers Sports Bar, trying drinks at Lou’s Jazz & Blues, Bubbles, Trellis Bar, and the Lemon Post. The night ended with the wild and hilarious Crazy Quest event at Absolute Zero—where Laurie even captained a team! ☀️🌊🍹 Get ready for a mix of paradise, relaxation, and non-stop laughs on Icon of the Seas! 📍 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to ride from Peaks to Tides with the Mountains 2 Sea Crew! 🏔️🌊🎥 #IconoftheSeas #StThomas #CruiseLife Need to book a hotel?
