CocoCay is not very Handicap Accessable!

[GoldStatustravler]

CocoCay has mainly sand roads, paths and beach areas. Hard surfaces are only at the pier, beach club and very limited walkways. It is not currently designed for anyone in a regular wheelchair, power chair or scooter who cannot transfer into one of their beach wheel chairs and being pushed by your party member in soft sand for long distances. They have a handicap shuttle but they drop you off in sandy areas except at Beach Club $200 a day per individual or the cabanas at $2,100. Limited bathroom access and no beach access to regular wheelchairs, scooters or power chairs and wouldn't recommend going to the island for a general visit unless you can get through soft sand. Overall, in my opinion, if you cannot transfer to a beach wheel chair and then being pushed by someone in your party don't go to CocoCay island unless you want to spend money for access at the Beach Club (still no access to beach) or floating expensive cabanas.

Hey @GoldStatustravler, thanks so much for your post! That's a great heads up for cruisers heading to CocoCay. I hope they try to make things better. Have you told Royal Caribbean about this? It may help them make improvements in the future.

I hate to be this way, but that is an incorrect statement. There are a great many paved parts on CocoCay, we have been twice this year, once with a scooter and once with a wheelchair.  It is the most accessible of any of the private islands we have visited and that includes Carnival, NCL, and MSC.
