We hopped off the ship and immediately joined a tour by Beulah (she’s on Trip Advisor and is worth every penny) for very cheap since they were trying to fill the remaining seats. She gave a wonderful history of the island and was funny while doing it. Soda and beer was available for $1. Air conditioned buses took us around to various sites on the island and then to the beach.

The customer service is top notch here. ...
