    I’m seeing many different versions of Castaway Cay maps. I’d like to know if it’s “Pelican Point” tram stop or “Palm Central Station”? Also, is it “In Da Shade” are or “Castaway Joe’s/Grouper Pavilion”? Thanks!

    Ahoy there, Michael, and welcome to planDisney! 

    It's always a treat to help Guests such as yourself plan an upcoming vacation, but it's especially fun assist you today since I just settled into my stateroom aboard the Disney Wish after spending a fun filled day at Disney Castaway Cay!

    There's so much to sea and do on Disney Cruise Line's very own slice of paradise, so it's very wise to begin familiarizing yourself with island's layout before you are on island time. According to the map of Castaway Cay on the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app, you'll be looking for the Pelican Point Tram Stop when you're hoping to save yourself a few steps and In-Da-Shade when you're interested in a bit or recreation out of the sun. 

    Speaking of the shade, I spent the final hour of my day enjoying one of Castaway Cay's coveted hammocks at my pal Diane's recommendation, and I can assure you that I was not disappointed. Located in a practically perfect shaded spot just behind Conched Out Bar, I wish I could have snagged it earlier! 

    Whether you choose to spend your day in the sun or the shade, don't forget that lunch is complimentary on Castaway Cay and conveniently located in multiple spots: Cookie's BBQ, Cookie's Too BBQ, and Serenity Bay BBQ. My husband was famished after a full morning of character hugs and snorkeling, and Castaway Cay's fare hit the spot!

    I hope this clears things up for you, Michael! If you have any additional questions about your upcoming cruise, I encourage you to reach out to my dear friend JoVonn who helped me maximize the magic of my own vacation.
