Great video again! So funny you guys ...We now have to come all the way from Europe to experience this amazing island... maybe next year. But you made us really hungry for it.
You made me miss that island so much especially Bimini beach. Chris outdid himself with his hilarious comments today, perfect start to my day. Lighthouse to pay homage to a light house that was there 🤣
North Beach is our favorite, great sand, short walk to Ocean House if you’re staying in YC, we’ve had butlers bring us drinks there in the past since it was so close without asking. The lagoon is great for snorkeling, lots of tropical fish, even spotted one of the resident nurse sharks cruising around. It’s also nice and deep, 20-30FT in many spots.
My fave beach is Bimini Beach. I love to snorkel at the end where the rocks are. Thank you for the detailed info for Sunset. I’m gonna try that one next when I’m back next month. I also enjoy the area where the heil-pad/wedding pavilion is. Beautiful, quiet, and my fave non-beachy part of the island. And I always see your iguana friend 🦎
Hey Kevin, that’s a great tip. I guess we get distracted by other parts of the island and have never spent a lot of time at Bimini but Chris was just saying that we should do that in June.
Helllooo Chris & Beth, my husband and I never thought we would be cruisers, but after seeing a 3 part series MSC and Ocean Cay And then, obviously the best part finding U2 on UA-cam we were like we got to try this because we like to travel and Taste too lol. So after watching all of your MSC videos, we ended up booking our first cruise in October on the Magnifica. So thank you for sharing your experiences and we look forward to watching many more!!!
Hi Marilyn… we are happy you have found our little corner of the You-Tu-verse! We are sure you will love planning and cruising 😊😊 Magnifica is a wonderful quirky ship. Let us know how you like it ❤️
This was such a cool little trip around ocean cay I feel like I’ve been there now! I will either be going this year or next, just opportunity has to come knocking at the right time!
Hmmm, maybe on World America in October 2025… on the Triple T cruise?!? 🤪😊🤪 For reals though, it’s such a beautiful island, you have to get there soon!
I found lots of small fish while snorkeling at Lighthouse Beach, near the rocks under the lighthouse. Super glad there's a net there, as my friend took a photo of a big shark just off the bow of the ship, from the 18th deck! I tried snorkeling at Sunset Beach, but the water was too cloudy. :( I'm sad that my transatlantic with MSC doesn't have a stop at Ocean Cay. Could have sworn there was going to be a stop there, but nope. Clearly, I need to book another cruise so I can see the upgrades they're just finishing! 😆
I think we have had opposite luck than you on the island or maybe just different weather patterns. We don’t bother going to Lighthouse beach because we don’t see anything and always have luck on Sunset. You always need another cruise to OC… any excuse will be a good one 🤪🤪🤪
Ha! Is it inappropriate to have 18 margaritas before filming?!? Unfortunately, no alcohol. That’s just us… aú naturel. 😊 Have an awesome time on your cruise!
I love your videos doing my first MSC cruise in 3 weeks on the magnifica. I do enjoy the shade where my wife likes the sun. Do you think we need an umbrella or can we find natural shade? Thanks!
Oh yay!!! So excited for you. We would recommend two beaches for you. Lighthouse beach and Sunset beach both have plenty of umbrellas and natural shade. Sunset is our favorite.
I am so excited for our first visit to ocean cay. We rented a cabana for the day, i hope they have cabanas at bimini beach as that is where we would prefer to be i think
They did have cabanas on Bimini before Phase II started (and we can’t imagine they’d remove cabanas)… we’ll know for sure in about a week when we return, though. Have an awesome time soaking up the sun& fun there! 😊
Hey there. We just got back today and yes there are cabanas on Bimini beach. As soon as you board the ship, go to the shore excursion desk and request a certain cabana. There are 11 on Bimini. If you want to be close to food, restrooms and bar then request 3-6. If you want more privacy then 7-11. Hope that helps 😊
@@Taste-Try-Travel thanks, that helped a lot 😁 we will go ask at the excursion desk when we board. Our cruise is not until november so we still have lots of waiting time 😂
We will be going on the magnifica in a few weeks and we got a couple umbrellas and snorkel gear. We dont like ctowds much, do you have thoughts on the best beach for relaxing, snorkling, and low crowds where you can use umbrellas? Thank!
Hi Sarah. We think that Sunset Beach is the best to snorkel and be less crowded. We did see lounge chairs there last time so you should be able to use the umbrella but I’m not 100% sure. We will be there next week. If you think about it… message us before you go since I will probably forget to message you back.
So looking through my videos I do see several cabanas up there. I’m not sure if the are used or maybe the last assigned since it’s a pretty quiet beach and far from food/bars. When we are there in June, we plan to look into that more and will probably do a video on it.
So there are trams that go around the island also. There is a stop right before the bridge going to Bimini as well as other stops. There should be a sign of where the trams are running for the day
Anyone ! My trip there in March got skipped over , due to bad weather. So disappointing 😢. And I’ll never find a great yacht club price like I had then again 😭 😭 😭
@@wa7632 hey there. The buffet and food trucks serving burgers and fries are all included in your cruise fare. There are lobster rolls that you can purchase for $12. Definitely can eat good with paying and $$
First time watching your channel and I loved this video. Now a subscriber.
Thank you. We try to share as much as we can about this great cruise line ❤️❤️❤️
Great video again! So funny you guys ...We now have to come all the way from Europe to experience this amazing island... maybe next year. But you made us really hungry for it.
Hey Bettina ❤️❤️
OC is not to be missed… maybe we can meet you there 😁😁
Loved your video. Thanks for making it and pointing out some of the best places on Ocean cay. Great sense of humor.
Thank you so much. We try hard to make your vacation better 😊😊😊😊
Paradise Sands is our favorite. Usually not very many people go to it. We love ocean Kay 😊
We’ve never really spent any time on Paradise Sands, but it looks so peaceful each time we wander that far out! ☺️😎😊
You made me miss that island so much especially Bimini beach. Chris outdid himself with his hilarious comments today, perfect start to my day. Lighthouse to pay homage to a light house that was there 🤣
Ha! I’m trying to get Beth to spend our next trip there on Bimini, but she loves Sunset Beach so much… and wants to be closer to the new buffet! 😊🤪😊
North Beach is our favorite, great sand, short walk to Ocean House if you’re staying in YC, we’ve had butlers bring us drinks there in the past since it was so close without asking. The lagoon is great for snorkeling, lots of tropical fish, even spotted one of the resident nurse sharks cruising around. It’s also nice and deep, 20-30FT in many spots.
Good to know! I’m wondering if the net they put up will change any of that???
LOL "shut up, they don't know"!! too funny That Aus jus was so light colored. Almost like tea. Ocean Cay looks like an awesome place.
Aus Jus and a little Sweet’N’Low… refreshing on a hot Caribbean day! 🤪😊🤪
came for the video stayed for the tunes! 👍
Thanks!!! Always good to hear that. Chris puts a lot of time into making the music stand out from the crowd 😁😁😁
Love how you really own your stories Chris!
(Beth- I saw that sly shot of the treasure in your hand!!!)
Yes that was before we buried it… good eye!!! Oh he can carry a straight face the whole time he delivers a story… it’s a gift!😊😊
You two are hilarious and very entertaining! Thank you!
❤️❤️

Love this video. I've shared it multiple times on various FB MSC pages.
Thank you! 🥰 Had a really fun time shooting this… hopefully folks get a little info/entertainment from it!!

You guys are so funny! ...Now I need to book another MSC and get to some of the other beaches!
Yes yes… always another cruise 😂🤔

My fav is Bimini great video
Thanks!! Bimini is pretty awesome if your ok with the walk 🤪
I am absolutely amazed that Chris didn't tell you that the iguana at the last beach was sneaking up on you. He was definitely "off his game" that day.
😂😂
I found lots of small fish while snorkeling at Lighthouse Beach, near the rocks under the lighthouse. Super glad there's a net there, as my friend took a photo of a big shark just off the bow of the ship, from the 18th deck!

You always need another cruise to OC… any excuse will be a good one 🤪🤪🤪
Great video. Love the positvity
Thanks David. It is important for us to put good out into the world 😊😊😊 there is just too much negativity
Sharky or non sharky?!lol you two are Soo funny and informative. I love the content!😆❤️
Ha ha that is what the crew member renting snorkel gear told us… that beach was sharky 😂😂😂😂
Another great video! Had to order Beth’s shirt for my wife too! 😂
It’s a great shirt to have for a cruise, she will love it 😊
How much did you two have to drink during recording haha?? Thank you you’re both funny! Cannot wait to go in two months!
Ha! Is it inappropriate to have 18 margaritas before filming?!?
Unfortunately, no alcohol. That’s just us… aú naturel. 😊
Have an awesome time on your cruise!

That sounds good! Have a blast!
Are there any cabanas near The Ocean Cay Spa (Besides the massage cabanas) or Paradise Sands?
So looking through my videos I do see several cabanas up there. I’m not sure if the are used or maybe the last assigned since it’s a pretty quiet beach and far from food/bars. When we are there in June, we plan to look into that more and will probably do a video on it.
Any news on where the original dark house can be toured?
Ha!!! 🤪
I thought only YC can use trams?
So there are trams that go around the island also. There is a stop right before the bridge going to Bimini as well as other stops. There should be a sign of where the trams are running for the day
Good to know! On Meraviglia now and Ocen Cay has been Miltoned .. On Seashore on October 20th so hopefully I get there then.
I wana go to light house beach 😊
Ha ha which one?😂😂😂
Anyone ! My trip there in March got skipped over , due to bad weather. So disappointing 😢. And I’ll never find a great yacht club price like I had then again 😭 😭 😭
Which beaches are only fir yacht club?
Ocean House beach is exclusive to Yacht Club… and they take you there in your own cart! So nice!
Do you pay for the food on that island
@@wa7632 hey there. The buffet and food trucks serving burgers and fries are all included in your cruise fare. There are lobster rolls that you can purchase for $12. Definitely can eat good with paying and $$
why so few complimentary umbrellas? Why so cheap
So few umbrellas because there is a lot of natural shade on the island.
free umbrellas at Yacht Club beach
Yes that too
I've been to a beach with no name..lol
😂😂😂
it couldn't possibly be a film by Michael Bay..... I didn't see any explosions..... 🤣
Ha ha you made us both laugh 😂😂😂😂
