What are the Best Cococay Excursions?

Coco Cay Excursions

Even though Perfect Day at Cococay is owned by Royal Caribbean, there are still excursions offered at Cococay. 

However, you will have to book directly with Royal Caribbean.  You can do this by logging into your Royal Caribbean account or booking these Coco Cay shore excursions through the app.

This image above is what is offered for Coco cay shore excursions when you actually arrive at Perfect Day at Coco Cay.  There are not as many options compared to what you will find online. 

If you know you want to experience Perfect Day at Coco Cay,  make sure to book a cruise itinerary that includes this stop! 

Let's get started with the best Cococay Excursions. 

1. Thrill Water Park

Thrill Water Park at Perfect Day at Cococay Bahamas

Thrill Water Park is one of the best Caribbean water parks! It has the tallest slide tower in North America and the largest wave pool in the Caribbean.

There are 13 slides and two main pools: Adventure Pool and the Wave Pool.  

Admission Cost

The cost of a Thrill Water Park full-day pass depends on what time of year you are going and what ship you are on.  It can range from $55 to over $100.  We went during Spring Break and it was around $100 per person.

Coco Cay Water Park

Thrill water park is designed for older kids and teens.  If your kids are under 40 inches this Coco Cay shore excursion is not for you.  There are other areas on Coco Cay that are free and more fun for little ones.

All of the rides on Devils Tower require you to be 48″.  There are some family rides on the Splash Summit Tower with a height minimum requirement of 40″ if they wear a lifejacket.  

Great For Older Kids and Teens

We took a 9, 13, and 15 year old and it was perfect. They loved this Cococay excursion! We played at Thrill Water Park most of the day and then checked out the other free options on the island. 

 

2. Zip Line at Coco Cay

Zip Line Cococay Excursions

Perfect Day at Cococay has a 1600 ft zipline that soars above the island.  If you like a thrill zip-lining is the perfect Cococay excursion to try out.  

We loved watching the participants soar over the Thrill Water Park.  It was really cool! 

Admission:  $79 – $139 

Prices will be higher during peak season.  You can also buy a combo ticket that includes the zip line and Thrill Water Park.  This ticket is $99 -$179.

Duration: 45 minutes

Duration: 1.5 hours

Treasure Island

If you decide to do this Cococay excursion you will take a speedboat to Treasure Island.  The island hosts the swimming pigs.  One important thing to know is that the pigs do most of the swimming (not you).  You will enter the water no more than waist deep and feed the pigs. 

Prices vary depending on the time of year. This is one of the top Cococay Bahamas excursions.

4. Jet Ski Cococay Royal Caribbean Excursion

The jet ski adventure is a tour.  There will be about 10 jet skis following a leader.  The water is so wonderful and calm around the island on most days.

  1. This looks exciting!
    Haven’t been to the Caribbean or on a cruise yes. And I had no idea they owned the island. From those I would bee keen to try Zip line, but only after my sting ray and pig swim 🙂 After I would also fo for kayaking. Such a cool place to spend your day.

  2. I knew about Castaway Cay – Disney’s private island – but I had no idea Royal Caribbean had one too! Wouldn’t mind trying some of those activities, especially swimming with pigs, the water park, and scuba diving.

  3. Wow!! This looks like so much fun! I would definitely love to swim with the pigs and the stingrays. But also the diving experience looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!

    1. There is a booth on Perfect Day, where you can book any excursion they have available. Sting Ray City may only be available from the other Bahamas stop.
