Re: Pelican Bar - worth it?
We've gone to Pelican Bar a couple of times now, for us as with other the getting there is a very important part of the day. We had a great guide and friend and a very reliable vehicle. We normally go to Paratee and have a drink at Basil's Bar before taking a short ride (10 or 15 minutes) across to Floyd's Pelican Bar.
I would recommend going, it is a day trip but normally you can do 2 or 3 things in one day.

We went six/seven years ago....can't say I'd go again, but if you have a day to burn, it's something you can say you've done.....

I loved the time we spent at Pelican Bar. It was a lot of fun with a big group. The Red Stripes were cold. I was disappointed that they were not serving food while we were there though. Will definitely go there again.

hey you only go around once, go for it!!!
Re: Pelican Bar - worth it?
Just shuffle your feet while on the sand bar! Nothing like a stingray sting to ruin a good day! ;)
Once to the bar is definitely enough! Hanging out on the black sand beaches can be quite entertaining & beautiful!

We did Belmont and Lovers leap on our trip. Same wit the 2 posters above.
It took forever to get to Lovers Leap, so we didnt make it to Pelican until right before sundown.
I think it would have been better to get there at noonish.
However, Belmont and Lovers leap were both really cool.

We've gone twice. first time day trip to YS falls and Pelican with Rocky and then the second time Jack Sprats with Kingsly. Next time, we'll spend the day there, meaning, not combining with anything. For us, there's just somethign about laying on the planks and watching the day go by that's wonderful.
FYI, Boat ride from Jakes/Jack Sprats is twice as expensive than it is from Basils. 70ish vs 30ish for two people.
I think Rocky does a thrusday group trip that has YS, Pelican and something else for a low rate.
Re: Pelican Bar - worth it?
We went once, combined with a trip to YS Falls. Loved it, but unless we had someone who really wanted to go, I don't think we'd do it again.
