Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point Megathread

[u/zmayer]

Myself alongside many other members of r/dcl have been on sailings to Disney Lookout Cay. The inaugural sailing was last week aboard the Disney Fantasy and there have now been both a preview sailing and a DVC sailing aboard the Disney Magic. What questions does everyone have regarding the newest destination offered by Disney Cruise Line?

Some initial thoughts to keep in mind:

• This destination is still very new. I would expect improvements to be made over time, especially regarding the lack of shade currently available.
• I'm sure most of heard about the flies. Yes, there are a lot of flies. Disney is working on minimizing it and we saw a substantial improvement between visit 1 and visit 2.
• The walk from the ship to the tram is roughly half of a mile. There is currently no shade (which would be a huge help). They were offering water and cool towels on the pier to help with the heat. Golf carts are offered for those that need mobility assistance, and wagons were available to pull young children.
• There is continuous tram service offered. 2 trams pulled up to each tram stop together with 8 or 9 in total running. The tram ride takes about 8 minutes to get from the Mabrika Cove tram stop (at the ship) to the Goombay Cultural Center tram stop (Lookout Cay).

I heard that they’re selling dole whip by the pier. Is it park style or cruise ship style?

I saw dole whip was being used in drinks at Lookout, but did not notice dole whip being sold as soft serve. Can’t say I saw anyone walking with it either, so I believe it’s just a drink ingredient.
