Dude, I was in the Navy and my Destroyer was tied up in Ft. Lauderdale. Next day a Carnival ship docked behind us, let the passengers out and instead of checking out the sites, they went straight to us wanting tours. They said how much an we told them that it was free. I operated the ships store and cleared me out of souvenir 's. Thank goodness that I had extras for our crew, but we all had a blast.

That's really cool!
I agree with you. Most couples spend thousands of dollars to go on a cruise. You have your base rate, then all the taxes port fees, gratuities, parking fees, possibly Airlines tickets and then baggage cost with the airlines, tipping before, during, and after. The list could go on and on and on and on and on. Personally they shouldn't charge for anything on their private islands.

They have multiple chips at the same port. Lost of competition and people bidding against eachother
$120 for 1 zip line is absolutely insane. I did a 3 hour zip line tour in Hawaii for less than $100 and Hawaii is not cheap.

My biggest complaint with Royal is that they don't spend enough time at Coco Cay. Especially during the summer when it doesn't get dark till 7:30pm or so.
Bro I think the reason I watch your channel is because you genuinely have fun in your videos. Not like Don or the guy from La Lido Loca, who are slowly turning into the complaining and whining cruise passengers we hate to deal with. You spread good energy and vibes everywhere you go.

i'm with L, that's total crap that they won't let you enjoy your last hour in port as you'd like! Also agree that it shouldnt be so expensive to enjoy the private islands. We all spend thousands of dollars to go on cruises and only get a couple of stops and they really push their private islands so it should be worth the trip!

There's always gonna be that one person or couple who stick around until the very last second and then miss boarding time and blame the cruise line for it. This is definitely a CYA move on RCL's part. I agree about the extra expenses though.

Just got back from COCO, there's plenty to do without paying. Ziplines And water slides are all mainland things. Enjoying the island without a dollar in your pocket is the way to do it.
I love Coco Cay and being on Chill Island!! Thank you for taking me on the zipline, because this is the only way I will be on there for that price. Have fun!!

I live in NM. I feel for people who spend big bucks to come to the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. It's amazing, when the balloons actually can go up. The weather has to be perfect, no wind. There have been years when they only flew once or twice. And years when they flew almost every day. Impossible to predict. So if you come for Balloon Fiesta, plan to stay for the week!
Thx again J for a great vid ... And Yes I agree with you 100%: Coco Cay should be all day & $120 for the Zipline is a rip off ... That's more than a day pass at Disneyland 😳
You're right....The zip line looks like fun, but not $120 fun. 😄 Another great video J!

To tell you the truth when we go to Coco Cay. I'm gonna find us some chairs w/umbrella and relax n' splash on CHILL BEACH ⛱️🏖️. That's it that's all I'm content 😁😂🤣
We loved Coco Cay a few weeks ago. Another blogger gave the heads up that the best time to ride the water park slides was later in the day. YUP. From about 1:00 on they were mostly empty with 2 ships in port. We couldn't rent snorkels, they were all out, so we ended up buying them for CHEAPER than to rent and win win we used them for the next 2 ports. Also, heads up, Black Friday sold the waterpark tickets for either $39.99 or $44.99. There were plenty of seats and the snack shacks were delicious.
The Tappenyaki on the cranial horizon was amazing.
Loving the tour 😍 may you continue to be blessed 🙌 in life

Appreciate your break dancing, definitely a cool skill 🤸🕺
I just came back from my cruise to Coco Cay and the Bahamas. My 11 year old daughter and I got passes for the thrill water park... but honestly... it wasn't worth the $150 for the 8 slides we enjoyed. But the weather was PERFECT and the staff were fabulous. Recommend just enjoying the island and not paying for anything extra!

Royal really seems to be feeling out just how high of a price they can get away with on Coco Cay. For instance the zipline at Labadee can be gotten for less, and the max is about the same price as Coco Cay but it is much better.

Jay. My man. Coco-Cay = Money Grab and a double-dipper. We took the tram and rode around the island and jammed to the CoCoCay song playing on the radio. I asked if they could replay it, but they didn't. Spent the rest of the day ON the ship and that itself was PERFECT!!
LOL Look at you being a troll @16:56 🤣🤣
I'm glad you shared the price of ziplining there, because I will not be spending my money on it. LOL!

Living your best life!! Thanks for the vid 👍
Another excellent video, J. You are a gift to the cruising community! We were in Coco Cay for the first time last week on "Enchantment" (our first post-COVID cruise) and had great weather. Ship at 65% capacity, only 200 in water park. No wait for the slides, but we were surprised to have to leave the park dripping wet, as the towel station closed early. The previous day thee were two megaships in, and there was a 90 minute wait for the slides. Cay is pronounced "key" traditionally, but we were told RC uses the alternation pronunciation so it rhymes with "Perfect Day at Coco Cay". Don't like the larger ships (were on "Anthem"), as mega ships mean mega crowds. RC is naming the newest one "Utopia". Zip line looked like a total rip off. For nearly the same price, we did a phenomenal one in Puerto Vallarta, Mex that lasted a few hours, with snack and gorgeous scenery, plus rope swings and climbs.
Somebody’s wifey was a bit too friendly at dinner and I must say it was a little cringey to watch. You handled it like a professional, of course 🤣👍
Thank you for doing the water park for me! I should be going in June, and I got my tickets half off in Black Friday! Crazy amount! I am debating the zip line, looks like fun!
Thank you for being honest, straightforward and helpful without whining or complaining.
I agree with you on Coco Cay. When I take the cruise to this place, I will not incur in any extra activities. For me the beach and pool is more than enough.
I love traveling with you and Lauren. Sorry you couldn't get to jet ski. The weather was a turn off....l enjoyed the restaurant. With the righ music...the club would be everything. Enjoy seeing your Breakdancing. Enjoy and be safe💙

Enjoyed every minute of this vlog! You made it exciting and had lots to say about your trip. There's a couple tips you mentioned that I'll keep in mind since we're sailing in August on the Oasis of the Seas. Kind of outrageous how much they charge you on the private island for excursions and not be there the whole day. Bummer you guys could't take a dip in the last hour, that itself would be piss me off. Did you visit all the beaches there and if so which one was your favorite?
Great vlog man!!!! Keep it up!
Such well done videos. My new favorite cruise vlogger!
I just want to say Lauren is a nice addition to your channel. She is so funny.
Luv watching your videos! I only have 2 cruises under my belt back in the early 2000's - Carnival Legend, (eh) and Norwegian Dawn (a bit better). I imagine that the newer ships are probably way better with more exciting stuff. I'm not sure why I initially subscribed a while back because I'm not super into cruises, but after watching your videos for a while, I'm sticking around. Great energy, fun content, good info, and pretty darn good video editing - thanks!
Awesome getting to see these places and the zip line was awesome!
Great job. You give excellent detail. Thank you.
For the incurred added expense of Coco Cay I would just stay on the ship and do free things. 120 dollars to ride a zipline? No thanks. Over 100 dollars for a theme park? Way too much for short little things. Great video J.
I would love to cruise with you!! Just completed my 47th cruise, a lot to some people and nothing to other seasoned cruisers. Had a floating cabana at Coco Cay 2 weeks ago!!! We had 8 people so the cost was not astronomical…was so impressed with service, food and cabana atmosphere. 6 of our guests were 1st time cruiser’s, between cabana and oasis ship, it will be extremely difficult to match this cruise and excursions. Only thing missing was more time on the island!!
Come on bro! Yoda! Haha. Great in depth video by the way!
