Cruising to Carnival’s private Caribbean beach, Roatan

Cruises often include a popular day at the beach on a private island. Carnival Corp. now has a private beach on a public island, Roatan, off the Caribbean coast of Honduras.

Molyneaux, TheTravelMavens.com) At Mahogany Bay, cruise passengers can walk off the ship, shop at a private village, then choose a boating excursion or head to Mahogany Beach. The beach is a 10-acre private enclave with lounge chairs, cabanas for rent, floats, a beach volleyball court and watersports.

You can walk to the beach — it is less than a 10-minute stroll on new pavement — or, for $10 for the day, take a ride on what Carnival calls the Magical Flying Beach Chair.
