Creator's Key Takeaways

This is the best swimming I've ever done in the ocean. I love it.

If you're trying to swim, not just lay on the beach, look for Half Moon Key instead of Princess Key.

The water is cold, but it's nice because it's warm outside. It's calm enough to swim, but you can still feel the movement in the water.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Rent a clamshell early for shade, as they sell out quickly.
βœ“Bring a beach towel if you don't have one, as they may not be available.
βœ“Arrive early to find loungers, as they fill up fast.
βœ“Use the tram to explore other parts of the island efficiently.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Being left on the island if missing the last tender β€” The last tender is at 1:30 PM; make sure to return on time, but staff will likely look for you if you miss it.
Difficulty finding shade or loungers β€” Arrive early to secure a clamshell or umbrella, as they are limited and sell out fast.
