You’ll find this relaxation station in Bay Gardens Beach Resort & Spa. Grab the free resort shuttle and do all the treatments in one day of pampering. Or spread out your luxuriation over the length of your stay.

But, we’re not just talking the conventional kayaking and snorkelling – although you can do that if you like.
No, we’re talking about the Caribbean’s first open-water inflatable sports park – Splash Island. Set out in the Caribbean Sea, just off the shore of the Bay Gardens Beach hotel, this blow up behemouth consists of a trampoline, climbing wall, monkey bars, a swing, a slide, hurdles and so much more.
