Ahoy, fellow cruisers. Amber cove is a great cruise port where you can decide not to spend anything, spend a little or a lot! We spend a little and I will share with you what we did.  Join me as I spill the beans on the 10 things every parent should know when venturing to The Cruise Port of Amber Cove with their kiddos for the first time. Let's dive in!


10 Tips for Going to The Cruise Port of Amber Cove with Kids:


  1. Choose Kid-Friendly Excursions: At the cruise port there is a free pool. You can also pay $6 for slides (11/23 Prices). You can also zipline for $26. You need to be a certain weight to do this. I also saw two children going together to increase the weight but I am not sure how that works. There is a small yellow building by the boat where you pay. 

  2. Splash Around at the Pool: Amber Cove boasts a fantastic pool area. Bring swim gear for a refreshing dip and hours of family fun. Remember this part is free but some sections have loud music. There are free bathrooms around. The music had the curse words taken out. The pool does go in a circle. 

  3. Visit the Play Area: Let your kids burn off some energy at the dedicated play area. It's a perfect pitstop for active little ones. There is a small grass section and free hammock if you can get there first. 

  4. Try Food: In the Amber cove cruise area they had inexpensive food and a Nathans hotdogs if you like that. 

  5. Capture the Scenic Views: The picturesque surroundings of Amber Cove provide the ideal backdrop for family photos. Don't forget your camera! You will need to walk up yourself but it is free and a the views are beautiful. 

  6. Connect with Wildlife: If your kids love animals, consider excursions that allow them to interact with local wildlife. We saw lots of butterflies and dragonflies in November 2023. 

  7. Stay Hydrated: Caribbean sun can be intense. Pack water bottles to keep your family hydrated throughout the day. Bring your own water bottles. 

  8. Prepare for Shopping: The port features a variety of shops. Set a budget for souvenirs and involve your kids in picking out keepsakes. We went back on the ship and changed and then went shopping when we were done after the water activities and the zipplining. 

  9. Coordinate with Other Families: Cruising is more fun with company. Connect with other families on the cruise and plan activities together. Our daughter loved doing on the waterslides with another child her age. 

  10. Bring Portable Shade: There place only had shade by the building so that is where we sat.
