PRebecca Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 There hasn't been an excursion post in over 24 hours. Anyone want to share what your favorite Caribbean excursion ever was? Which island/ship/etc. I imagine Alaskan and Mediterranean are in a league of their own so let's start with Caribbean for this newbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. RoyalMoyal Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 St. Kitt's rainforest hike. It was a real hike, not for the weak-hearted and next time I will pack hiking boots. PRebecca and bobroo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal has since changed the description but I did this a few years ago. Mine was basically jogging up the mountain and I only made it halfway. I would describe myself as a chubby runner, I'm not fast but the other day I jogged about 4 miles with a few 30 second breaks and a little walking in between. I cannot run UP a mountain. A hill, sure. If this was plain hiking I could have done it - but even that. I have a hand disability that, quite honestly, I forget about - There was a part I had to climb which was not the easiest for me considering I only had one good hand to hold with. Saying that, there were people in their 60's and 70's who ran right up that mountain and made it back down. bless you all.

HeWhoWaits Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 For me it's a tossup between the America's Cup Regatta (done in both St. Maarten and Cozumel) and the Butterfly Farm in Aruba. Sailing for the fun and competitive nature of the activity. Butterfly Farm because I did it with my young grandkids. PRebecca 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 I've done the butterfly farm in Aruba. It was ok...but I definitely would not expect it to be a highlight excursion for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacation Crazy Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Our favorite excursion was in Puerto Rico. The El Yunque Rain forest hike and waterfall swim. Just thinking about that day puts a smile on my face! And any excursion on a catarmaran is a close second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was ok...but I definitely would not expect it to be a highlight excursion for the day. It was only a favorite because of the wonder in the eyes of young (not yet 4 and not yet 2) grandkids. If you're taking toddlers on an excursion, that one's great. Agree that otherwise it would have been just okay.

PRebecca Posted March 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 These are great, thanks! I've heard of others who really enjoyed the Regatta excursion, we decided it's a little too much 'work' for us if on vacation but I certainly see the appeal!
