    Thanks for showing us around. Our visit to the island was called off due to rough seas. Very disappointing because I was really looking forward to it.

      I can see that happening because even on our visit, it was really rocky. I do hate that you missed it and hope you get to visit soon in the future. It's a beautiful island and I wouldn't hesitate to go again!

    I love that bag! Great Stirup Cay looks a lot nicer than it was in 2018 when I was there. I remember looking for shade too. We found some loungers underneath some palm trees but it was a ways back from the water. Great video!

      @SIGCruiser  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Oh wow! Yes this was my first visit and I loved it. Would go back again. I’m going to order another bag. I see they have lockable backpacks now. Even better!

    That was an amazing view of the island with beautiful weather. And to top it off, no crowds and not a whole lot of people. I would like to see more of the food served but overall, wonderful video.

    • @SIGCruiser
      @SIGCruiser  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you. Yes it was tough trying to get detailed shots of the food with people there. I didn’t want to hold up lines or get in the way. I’ll see what I can do in the future. Thank you for the feedback!

    giiirrl u are crazy doing them double espressos lol but this was a very nice look at the island - i normally dont even want to go into port at the bahamas but i think im changing my mind with it not being nassau

    • @SIGCruiser
      @SIGCruiser  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes, I normally stay on the ship in Nasau too so I can take advantage of ship amenities now. But that was a very nice private island!

    I’m not a coffee drinker but looking at that machine, it seemed it would be better than the buffet 😂 Glad it was.
    Great tip on how to keep your things safe at the beach. Since I’m not a beach visitor, how I keep my things safe when traveling solo during a port stop tour … I only carry the necessary items (passport, ship card, 1 debit/cc card, and a small amt of cash for tips) in a tiny cross body purse (way smaller than yours) My purse always stays in front of me and I usually keep my arm or hand on it the entire time.

    Sig 🗣️. Long time. Miss your soothing vlogs. I like when they have the towels set up right at the gangway. Grab the towel as leaving and give it back right there when return. That chain lock thing is good. I do not know how to play chess ♟️. This zipline was bigger or higher than the one in Labadee? They make gluten free taco or tortillas? Thanks for sharing 🤗

    • @SIGCruiser
      @SIGCruiser  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you so much, Cydney! Yes, I like it when they have towels in the gangway too. Much more convenient. I haven't been to Labadee so don't know about their zipline there. No the tortillas appeared to be flour. I was okay because there were plenty of other options. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, Cydney! I appreciate you!

    The last time I took a tender was on NCL Encore. And we also went to Great Stirrup Cay and it was also rocky. I prefer not to tender because the longer I sit in the tender waiting for people to board, my head starts hurting, Lol!! Bad headache from all that rocking. I want to get on the tender & just go.

    • @SIGCruiser
      @SIGCruiser  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I can understand that about the tender. I said 30 minutes but I honestly think it took longer than that. I don’t mins the rockiness though. I can deal with that. 😂 Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

    I definitely need shade, and it concerns me when I see so few umbrellas available. Do you have to pay for the umbrellas? TIA!!

    • @SIGCruiser
      @SIGCruiser  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes you have to purchase the umbrellas and clam shells. But if you get there early, you can find a few loungers in the shade for free!

    Ya Know what? I Do have a question: Yes, you have a pretty secure method for your belongings, but for those without that type of security, Did you happen to see any lockers on the Private Island... (I always keep my VLog gear on me, But other items I'd want locked away)

    • @SIGCruiser

      Unfortunately, no. They currently do not have lockers on the island.
