Sandy Toes Experience - AO Trips
A-O Trips will be providing a private group experience to Sandy Toes for all travelers. Prior to departing for the Bahamas, travelers will need to select either day 2 or day 3 as their preferred day for the Sandy Toes Experience. There will be a maximum number of people allowed per day and reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please register as soon as possible for your preferred day. Once you are confirmed for your day at Sandy Toes, please do not schedule other activities for that day as the group experience is from 9:00am – 4:00pm.
The deadline for registration is 2 weeks prior to your departure date. If you do not register by the deadline, you will be assigned to a date for your group experience and a confirmation will be emailed to you.
