Castaway Cay

Our last stop on our Disney Cruise was Castaway Cay, a private island owned by Disney. This island is completely run by the Disney staff on the ship. Once the ship leaves the island there are a few care takers who watch over it. Today, I am going to be talking about the things we did on the island.

Me Biking!

First, my mom and I decided to go bike riding. The bike rental place on the island was about a 20 minute walk from the ship. There is also an option to take the tram over too which is only a 5 minute ride.  Once we got to the bike rental place there was a hut where we pay for our bikes. The rentals were by the hour so we just rode for one. The trail is very easy to bike over and there were frequent places to stop. If you do extreme biking or advanced biking this is not the trail for you. On the trail there is also a lookout point. Once we finished the first trail we went on another trail that took us to a secluded beach. The beach was really nice and peaceful, plus you could see the whole side of the island. We made it back to the hut with about 20 minutes to spare. If you consistantly bike through it you could make it back in 30 minutes.

Next we went to sit on the beach and wait for lunch. The beach was completely packed all around. It took us about ten minutes to locate chairs. Luckily, two people were leaving the chairs just as we got there. Still, with all of the people around us it wasn't an ideal location but we just wanted to sit down.

Finally we got to eat a barbaque style lunch on the island. There were ribs, corn, chicken, and more. The meal was really delicious. While we were eating there was a crab race going on so that was also fun to watch.

The last thing we did was go to the teen club on the island. It took us about 10 minutes to find in all and when we got there we realized how small the club was. It really had not much to do and it was really old and run down. My brother and I did up playing one fooseball game but left right after.

From the teens club back to the ship was another 20 minutes but all and all we had a fun time on the island. Thank you so much for reading my blog this week. I hope you learned something and maybe decided to go on a Disney cruise. Leave a comment below for what you want my next weeks blog to be about. As always, have safe travels where ever you go!
