ONE DAY, THREE WAYS AT
PERFECT DAY AT COCOCAY
We all know there’s no such thing as a ‘one-size-fits-all’ vacation. For some, it’s all about discovering and doing new things you may never try at home. For others, it’s about disconnecting from reality and finding the perfect chill spot, Coco Loco in hand. Still others like a balance of full-throttle activity and relaxation. Below, we’ve put together three easy hour-by-hour plans for spending your time on Perfect Day at CocoCay— choose the one that suits your vacation style.
ON MY VACATION, I WANT TO...
- Have an epic family adventure
- Relax and recharge
- Find a perfect blend of thrills and chill
PLAN 1: AN EPIC FAMILY ADVENTURE
9 A.M.
Your family adventure starts at the Arrivals Plaza as you map out and begin the day at Thrill Waterpark. A day pass gives you access to 13 waterslides— including the tallest waterslide in North America, the largest wave pool in the Caribbean, the Adventure Pool and its many obstacles, and complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas.
Young thrill seekers can make a splash at Captain Jill’s Galleon, a shipwreck loaded with slides and water cannons located right next to Thrill Waterpark. And the littlest explorers have gallons of fun at our biggest-ever Splashaway Bay aqua park, home to five waterslides, plenty of fountains, splash-worthy pools and two drench buckets. Both Thrill Waterpark and Splashaway Bay are great complimentary options for small children.
Adventure tip: If you wish to leave the waterpark during your day, use your SeaPass to enter and exit the park as often as you like.
11:30 A.M.
Looking for the best zip line ride in The Bahamas? You’ve found it. Perfect Day at CocoCay has a 1,600-foot long zip line course, where you’ll crisscross the island and soar high above the harbor. Zip Line admission can be purchased separately or bundled with your admission to Thrill Waterpark. It costs about $79 - $139 per person — you can check Cruise Planner for the latest pricing.
Adventure tip: Make sure to check the age and height restrictions for the Zip Line, waterslides and pools beforehand. You’ll find all the information you need here.
12:30 P.M.
Enjoy lunch with a side of harbor views at the nearby Skipper’s Grill, serving up complimentary salads, sandwiches, tacos, burgers and other grilled favorites. Plus, self-serve beer at an additional cost.
2 P.M.
Wrap up your day with a shopping trip at CocoCay Island Market, or grab snorkeling gear at Chill Island® and explore the world beneath the waves.
4 P.M.
It’s time to head back to the ship, where more adventure awaits! To get back, just take the tram to the pier.
PLAN 2: RELAX AND RECHARGE
8:30 A.M.
If you just want to unwind, head to Chill Island® on the east side of CocoCay, where you’ll find crystal-clear tropical waters, powdery white sands, and plenty of ways to relax and recharge. Access to Chill Island® is complimentary, as are beach chairs, but for an additional cost you can up your relaxation game by reserving your own private cabana or daybed at Breezy Bay.
Looking for the ultimate beach day experience? You can post up at Coco Beach Club. Admission includes access to an exclusive beach, a beachfront infinity edge pool with in-water loungers, a clubhouse, beach chairs and umbrellas, and complimentary dining at the Coco Beach Club restaurant, where you’ll enjoy an elevated menu including filet mignon and lobster. You’ll also find the first Overwater Cabanas in The Bahamas here, and each rental includes admission to Coco Beach Club for up to eight people.
12 P.M.
At lunchtime, tuck into some beachside BBQ at Chill Grill, the island’s largest dining venue, offering complimentary grab-and-go options plus a self-serve beer station at an additional cost. It’s the perfect spot to break for lunch and catch a glimpse of the zipliners crisscrossing over the harbor, too.
1 P.M.
It’s five o’clock somewhere, so grab a Coco Loco— CocoCay’s signature drink— at the swim-up bar before lounging on one of the three swim-up islands in Oasis Lagoon, the Caribbean’s largest freshwater pool. The south end of the lagoon has a kid-friendly sloping entry in case you’ve got little adventurers in tow. If you’re craving a bite to eat, a nearby Snack Shack serves up complimentary burgers, hot dogs, salads — and ice-cold beer available for an additional charge.
4 P.M.
You’ve now achieved your perfect-ten zen — it’s time to head back to the ship. The tram runs every 15 minutes and will drop you off at the pier.
A PERFECT BLEND OF THRILLS AND CHILL
9 A.M.
Your day begins with a splash at Thrill Waterpark. Purchase a day pass — you’ll enjoy full day of access to all of the waterslides and attractions. And when you’re ready to check out the private island’s other offerings later in the day, grab your SeaPass for easy reentry whenever you want.
12 P.M.
Enjoy lunch at Skipper’s Grill, which offers complimentary salads, sandwiches, tacos, burgers and a self-serve beer station at an additional cost — all with a side of sea breezes and peaceful harbor views. Then get ready to take to the skies in Up, Up and Away, a 10-minute helium balloon ride that soars up to 450 feet above the island — the highest vantage point in The Bahamas. Up, Up and Away is available to adventurers of all ages.
2 P.M.
Next, head to Chill Island® on the east side of CocoCay — the ultimate beach escape with clear, calm waters and white sand beaches. Or head to Oasis Lagoon and hit the swim-up bar for a Coco Loco in the Caribbean’s largest freshwater pool.
4 P.M.
Now that you’re fully refreshed and recovered from the morning’s adventures, take the tram to the pier and head back to the ship.
