🧭 How to play this day
CROWD-TACTICALOn maximum-ship days even locals avoid Horseshoe Bay — if it's a bucket-list must, be on the first shuttle out; otherwise head to quieter shores like Clearwater or stay west at the Dockyard and St. George's ferry routes.
Return margins matter more than itinerary today: shuttle seats fill in minutes and the island's narrow roads clog, so pick one anchor and don't try to stack beach plus town.
Why is this super crowded?
