Creator's Key Takeaways

the info sheet and map that NCL handed out to guests states that the island's name is pronounced Harvest key

there was no complimentary food provided by the ship when we visited the island

the signage is extremely help F

many of the lounger areas at the far end of the beach were still almost completely empty several hours after guests first arrived

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack some cash and credit cards for purchasing souvenirs, drinks, and food.
Bring a beach towel from the ship because the island does not provide towel service.
Stay to the right side of the path when walking to the island to avoid shuttles.
Pay attention to where you're throwing out your trash because there were several coconuts only bins.
