mompells Posted January 27, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 27, 2015 We want to go to Barefoot Beach, but I am wondering with it's seclusion if their is a restroom, bar and buffet close by? Thanks in advance for any helpful info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 27, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nothing on Coco Cay is far from anything else...it's nowhere near as large as Labadee! Easily walkable to everywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz63 Posted January 27, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) The closest bar to Barefoot Beach is Coconut Willies--this is roughly where Coconut Willies Beach ends and Barefoot Beach starts--so not far from Barefoot Beach at all. Blackbeard's Grill for lunch is closer to Snorkel Beach and the tender dock and yes, there is a restroom at Barefoot Beach.

Sail Mama Posted February 3, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Does anyone know the total acreage of CoCo Cay? Are there motor vehicles, e.g. golf carts on the island? I'm just trying to get an idea of how much walking may be involved to get from the tender pier to Barefoot Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruzieSue Posted February 11, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Info on RC website states it is a "140 acre tropical paradise". I don't know if that is 140 acres above water or if it encompasses the swim areas, snorkel areas, etc. Everything I've read is that it is very walkable. I haven't seen anyone post about golf carts, etc. being on the island. I would think not unless it was for the employees to move supplies around, etc. We are scheduled to be there in March. If your trip is later, I can post what we find there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been to CoCo Cay, but are these beaches and bars you named part of the RCI beach or separate, independent businesses? Didn't know if I needed to bring cash or credit cards if we ventured off the property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know if I needed to bring cash or credit cards if we ventured off the property. Everything is inclusive of the one private island. No need for cash or credit card...just bring your seapass (unless you plan to make purchases from their small "straw market"--typical hats, sun dresses, flip flops, trinkets, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monctonguy Posted March 18, 2015 #14 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Everything is walking distance. No carts at all. As for closest bathrooms/bars, they are before barefoot beach. But not more than a 5 min walk give or take based on my 2 trips there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruzieSue Posted March 18, 2015 #15 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Thanks. Please keep me posted. I would greatly appreciate it! I will do my best to remember to post what we find on Coco Cay (assuming we are able to make the stop with cooperating weather and waves). :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddebaets Posted March 31, 2015 #18 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Any idea how long it would take to walk around the island completely? :-) just curious... would love to kind of see everything around there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hap Posted April 1, 2015 #19 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Any idea how long it would take to walk around the island completely? :-) just curious... would love to kind of see everything around there. It depends on how many times you stop and take pictures but we walked the entire island in about an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddebaets Posted April 1, 2015 #20 Share Posted April 1, 2015 It depends on how many times you stop and take pictures but we walked the entire island in about an hour. That's awesome!

Rare Betsynh Posted April 4, 2015 #22 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Someone posted on another thread about being able to rent a "Cabanette" on Barefoot Beach (a sun shelter). They don't show up on my FOS Shore Excursion options... any idea how we could reserve one? Sailing 4/19 and only see the super expensive Cabana.
