We chose this cruise as our honeymoon. We had a great time - except for when my husband lost his wedding ring at Half Moon Cay. Due to searching the ocean for 2 hours we got really sunburned, so we spent most of our time on the ship. We didn't have any excursions planned, but decided to walk around the second port of call on our agenda, Nassau. I honestly hated it. The locals were incredibly pushy and persistent (to say the least). One woman kept touching my hair trying to get me to let her braid it (it was already braided). The port was dirty. We wandered for 30-40 minutes around the shops and did not feel safe so we went back on board and enjoyed the quietness of the ship. We loved the ship activities, and the games that were planned. Comedy was pretty good throughout. Meals were superb and well worth the cost of the cruise. We met a couple at dinner and became friends with them over the course of the week. We still keep in touch a bit. Already have our next cruise planned!

Half Moon Cay

Make sure you take lots of sunscreen! And don't wear your brand new wedding ring. The water is crystal clear but once you lose your ring, it's gone.
