CocoCay is Royal Caribbean’s first private island in the new Perfect Day Island Collection and it is full of amazing Instagram photo opportunities. It opened in May 2019 with, seven distinctive island experiences for any perfect day, including a waterpark or zipline thrills, and beach or poolside chills.
CocoCay Island by Royal Caribbean promises some impressive bragging rights for your Instagram captions, like the tallest waterslide in North America, the highest view in the Bahamas, with a helium balloon ride that goes up to 450 feet, and the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean. If you enjoy taking photos of yourself and friends on vacation, or taking macro shots of flowers and native animals, like iguanas and macaws, your Instagram will be filled with beautiful images, especially if you can take some inspiration from my favorite shots, shared below.
