Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been to cway key this would be my fourth time and I'm a repeat offender and I'm getting a little bit bored now

overall I will say a trip to ciki is 100% worth it

I felt perfectly safe leaving my kids there and they loved it

I just think that maybe you know they could incorporate a bit more of that so that people are more enticed to stay longer on the island

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Take a photo of the map at the arrival area for reference
✓Book cabanas immediately as they are highly coveted and sell out fast
✓Consider going back to the ship for lunch if you prefer better food options
✓Use the tram service to avoid long walks in the heat, especially with kids
✓Check out Serenity Bay for a quieter, adult-only beach experience

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting lost on the island — Take a photo of the map at arrival and follow the abundant signage
Walking long distances in heat — Use the frequent tram service or consider the island is walkable but hot
Food availability — Lunch is included at barbecue locations, but you can return to the ship if preferred
Kids safety at beach — Use Scuttle's Cove kids club which is secure and doesn't take kids in the water
