Heading there in a week or two. Really appreciate that you shared your experience since I've been looking at online maps for alternatives to the ship-sponsored excursions. I did find the following a bit interesting. 5:36 "Allegedly, they have shark feeding"... 100 yards away... 8:30 goes in the water 10:22 "I did notice something. No fish!" *another clue that sharks are around. Later in comments "We didn’t know about the sharks until we left the beach. " LoL I know... hindsight is 20/20. Not trying to beat you up with this comment. I just found the the chain of events a bit funny.
I guess we thought the sharks would stay over at the restaurant where they feed them. That was probably stupid. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Thanks for the Video, We did the same at Amber Cove. We walked over to the small beach visible from the ship on the side of the RUI Resort. It was about a 15 minute walk but they had shops and lounge chairs and we bought a bucket of beer
Great video...I usually try to look for public transportation, but Freeport really doesn't have the same low cost transportation that even Nassau has. We have taken the public bus many times when we were in Nassau. Originally I was frustrated with my options in Freeport, but now knowing this is an option for a quick swim and lunch....I am happy with this low cost, chill alternative. Thank YOU!!!
It's a nice beach but keep in mind, we don't know anything about it. We saw it on the map and walked over there. Be careful. Thanks for your comments and thanks for subscribing to our channel.
Great video and your discovery of this "new" location! Did you end up having some munchies at Pier 1? Hidden Gem so close to the port? Pretty accessible it seems for a quick little walk and to sit on the beach and stick your feet in for a bit. Followed your directions with google maps too!
Our next cruise in June and we plan to head to Pier 1 to feed the sharks. It has been about 7 years since we have been in Free Port. Thank you for the great infomation.
I'm going in a 1.5 weeks. I like that it was that close & that restaurant was close by. Would you sat it's safe enough for a woman to venture out there alone? Really enjoyed the video, the very descriptive directions, video of restaurant's menu & the scenery. Do you have any recommendations for some fried conch? Thank you!
We didn’t see any reason for anyone to be afraid, but We suppose any day, anything could happen. Or lots of people along the way. We did not actually eat anything here. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Read the comments for this video. Apparently the beach does have another name. And they do feed sharks nearby, so be careful. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
We liked that beach. We thought it was named Port Monkeys beach. We didn’t know about the sharks until we left the beach. Although we probably still would’ve gone in the water. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
We have swam with sharks a couple of times. Nurse sharks in Grand Turk and a whale shark in La Paz, Mexico. In this video we unknowingly swam near a bull shark. Thanks for your comments and for subscribing.
We believe it is not currently open. We were there 2 years ago and didn’t look. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
We went to the beach first. Then we went to the restaurant and saw the sharks. We didn’t see any at the beach. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
@@PortMonkeys Question. Do you trust the gopro waterproofing or use a waterproof case over the camera. They are supposedly waterproof up to 30 ft or so.
@@JaguarVideo did you take a taxi from the port and how was it? Thank you again for replying. I’m going next week and wanted some insight. Many are telling me to stay on the ship there and I’m going solo.
I visited Freeport and found the LOCALS rude and ignorant. Happy to see the place in ruin. Since then I vacation in Mexico and Cuba where I am treated well and feel welcome.
