Friday Fives - Five Things to Love about Disney Cruise Line’s Castaway Cay

Unique to Bahamian and Caribbean cruises, Castaway Cay is one of the most popular ports of call on Disney Cruise tropical itineraries. In fact, it is so popular that Disney offers “double-dip” cruises that make not one but two stops to its private island in The Bahamas. Although only 3 miles long and 2 miles wide, Castaway Cay offers vast fun and a broad range of activities - whether you want to dip your toes in the clear water and relax on lounge chairs under the sun, or if you want to get your adrenaline going with more intense pursuits.

On today’s blog post, we’re wrapping up our coverage of the Bryan Family’s March 2019 Western Caribbean adventure with a stop at Castaway Cay. Quite appropriate because Castaway Cay was the last destination they visited before heading back (sadly) to Port Canaveral.

Over the last few blogs, we’ve focused on vacationing with Disney Cruise Line. We covered the importance of arriving a day early and what to expect on embarkation day, the fun to be had on sea days and a teen perspective.

On today’s blog, we’re talking about the amazing destinations featured on Disney Cruise Western Caribbean itineraries. Although staying on the ship while the majority of passengers disembark is tempting, we prefer to get off the ship to explore beautiful beaches, dine on local cuisine and shop. We perceive the ship as a moving hotel on water, offering the convenience of visiting a variety of locales with the boat serving as our home base. As the Bryan Family recently took a seven-night Western Caribbean cruise on the Disney Fantasy, we’re sharing their experiences at Cozumel, Grand Cayman and Falmouth.
