We went on the ATV excursion. Love riding those things. I wish it was a longer ride. Be sure you wear clothes and shoes you don't mind getting dirty. I was sweating dirt by the time we finished! Had a blast anyway. We did a little shopping afterwards. Went back to the ship early to shower and take a nap.

We spent the day on the Viva Wyndham Excursion...the beach is fantastic, you can rent jet ski's for about $70 or use any of the non motorized water sport equipment for free....there's even a flying trapeze for you to play on. There's a bar/burger/hotdog/fries shack on the beach and all was included...the buffet restaurant was mediocre at best but we didn't care...we were having a lovely lazy day ...
We really had no idea what to do here, since I had read such negative reviews on this port. WE LOVED the Island and wish we had more time there. The four of us found a cab to take us around. We paid $25 each (less than the ship's price) and got a wonderful driver - Spencer for Hire is what he said his name was. He showed us the bad and the good. The poor and the rich. What an eye opener. The ...
the straw market is in the process of being built just off the Dock , this is an improvement from getting off at the old dock but it's too far from town to walk and you have to take a cab everywhere. Excursions in-tale more travel than the actual time spent on the excursion itself .. I have too many other islands to compare the Bahamas too and they just don't stack up ... staying on the ship is ...
Outside of seeing family in Port Canaveral, this was our FAVORITE port. We did the Lucayan National Forest Adventure. We booked through Carnival. We had a ride to the "Forest", a short class on kayaking, then we kayaked for 2 1/2 miles in a controlled environment. It was awesome! It was our first time kayaking and we were laughing so hard that we could barely paddle. We kept getting stuck on ...
We again took a $10 (round trip) taxi tour around Freeport, learned alot about how the city is progressing (which we enjoyed). We then were taken to the shopping area which was more like a bazaar. Lots of anything who could possible want to buy...fine jewelry, Bahamian jewelry and clothing, souvenirs from t-shirts to hats to shoes, purses. The same tour purchased from the cruise ship was far, far ...
We went fishing, it was great. Carnival just needed to run this earlier in the morning. We didn't leave until 12:15 and by the time we got to the boat, then to the reef, we had only a short time to fish. Somehow Reef tours didn't even know we were coming until the last minute. We had a great time and would do it again. ...
There is nothing really to do here. Our ship only came here as we were cruising in hurricane season and the seas were too rough. All there is, is some shops, a Radisson hotel, and a beach. Very horrible experience and will never return. ...
Fun for shopping, didn't go to any beaches, and didn't do any excursions. If you did all that stuff, you may like this port more! It was good, but not as good as Nassau!
