Powdery soft sand and clear turquoise water can be found on Holland America Line’s private oasis Half Moon Cay on San Salvador Island in the Bahamas.
Not all private islands are like this one, and it’s no surprise to hear that Half Moon Cay regularly wins awards for being the best private beach in the Caribbean.

沙子非常柔軟,沒有珊瑚,岩石或貝殼。有樹木遮蔭,因此無需坐在傘下或小屋內。

I remember when we first started coming to Half Moon Cay in our early days of cruising (back in the 90’s) and hearing that they trucked the sand onto the island. An exaggeration of course because how could they do it? But, the idea is believable once you experience the sand for yourself. They do groom the sand as witnessed by of the ATVs with giant rakes driving along the beach.
Suzanne recently commented on our Facebook page “Love it there! The sand is as soft as icing sugar!” — and I couldn’t agree more!
The water is very shallow. I’m petite and can walk out quite a distance into the water and still be at 4-foot depth.
No seaweed, seagrass in the water — just clear blue turquoise.

小費: There aren’t a lot of fish to see in the water if you choose to snorkel unless you swim over to the rocks by the tender area.

關於半月礁的最好的部分是它是遊輪的延伸。
大型燒烤等待午餐。免費提供水,檸檬水和冰茶。酒吧服務是通過您的船上帳戶支付的,由在海灘上散步的侍應生以及海盜船酒吧提供。您需要攜帶實際現金的唯一原因是,如果您想在投標區附近的一家商店中購買紀念品。

洗手間,淋浴,沙灘椅和陰涼處很多。
Half Moon Cay的唯一問題是,您必須通過一次可容納300名左右客人的小型渡船進行招標,因此要等待很長時間才能到達該島並返回該船。
小費:儘早開始新的一天,以充分利用這個美麗的私人島嶼。
The day we docked, we shared the island with another Holland America Lines Ship — the Eurodam. Having both ships at the island made the beach and the food area much busier and more crowded than usual, so much so, that we opted to return to the ship earlier and just hit the buffet on the Lido deck instead.

If you are looking for a bit more breathing room for your chair, walk past the private villas towards the horse stables. It’s much quieter but be aware that there are no lifeguards past a certain point.
