Paradise Cove Day Pass with Pickup from Freeport

Made the mistake of thinking we were going to a resort beach. It was a hut on the shore. Beach chairs were included in all inclusive but umbrellas were extra. The beach was maybe 30 feet deep and about 80 feet wide. Whole experience was far below expectations.

Wonderful experience swimming with sea turtles and meeting Barry the owner of Paradise Cove who was very helpful and accommodating - a must experience in Freeport

Booked as my cruise excursion, driver was on time and got us back to the ship on time. The staff on the island were sweet and accommodating. No issues , swam next to sea turtles , didn’t swim that far out but other guest saw sting rays and peaceful sharks. Lots of coral& food was good! Over all very glad to purchase this!

We did the snorkel only option tour. Deadman’s Reef was worth the trip. Many varieties of fish were swimming around for our viewing pleasure. We also saw sea turtles, stingrays and eels. Thumbs up from the entire family.

Paid and the driver did not even show up. A nice lady at pier called and they told her wasn't coming because only 2 ppl (us) were scheduled but didnt even have the common curious to let us know.

It was a little paradise at this Cove. Our transport was an hour late getting to the port. Our expectation with a day pass at a resort. Paradise cove is a small stretch of beach that has large platform rigs on its right and bundles of roped rocks outlining its bay. The beach bar and kitchen are small wooden shacks. Lounge chairs are vinyl with beach umbrellas extra. The saving grace was the snorkeling. Deadman’s reef was beautiful, lots of fish, coral and sea turtles but a good 150 yards out so required good swimming. The current strong enough that I would not recommend this for inexperienced snorkelers. No lifeguard. And backside of reef is NOT visible from shore. No safety structure on back didevof reef to aid a swimmer in trouble. The package deal for cruise ship was a rip. Bring your own equipment and go a la carte. The food they offered was the most basic, the drinks they offered (soda or water) and the rum drink didn’t include an expected frozen drink but rather a small plastic Dixie cup with rum punch poured out of a gallon jug. This is not a resort. It is not a pristine beach. No palm trees (hurricane Irma must have taken them out). Even with package they nickel and dimed - $7 for umbrella $6 for locker etc. if you go (not much in Freeport) go for the snorkeling.

Relaxing beach small with non motorized water sports (Kayaking. snorkeling, paddle boating. Small family atmosphere.

Very impressive underwater world. A lot of turtles and exotic fishes. Personnel is friendly and responsive to your request. The facility has all necessary services and amenities.

If you are a brave ocean goer this was a great snorkel experience. Beautiful fish, several sea turtles, sting ray, coral, and water. The view in the deeper area looked like it was used to shoot shark week, so colorful and such beautiful fish. Never saw a shark and loved the experience. Even my younger children (7 and 9) went a short piece into the deep.

Our name wasn’t on the list when we arrived with the group. We were told we were with a different driver. Took us to the wrong place an our away from where we were supposed to be. Driver was kind enough to call the number on our Viator ticket. We were told they had us on the list for the day before, which was not what our tickets said. We were told to call Viator for a refund and were charged for the transport to the wrong location. Called Viator who blamed imposters. I was able to get a refund. Very disappointing day. I’ll pay extra and book with the ship next time.
