Someone can quickly point me in the direction of including the image caption between the <p>‘s? 

global $product;
$attachment_ids = $product->get_gallery_attachment_ids();

echo '<div class="flexslider"><ul class="slides">';
foreach( $attachment_ids as $attachment_id ) 
{
echo '<li>';
  echo "<img src=".$image_link = wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id, 'large').">";
  echo '<p>';
  echo '</p>';
  echo '</li>';
}
echo '</ul></div>';

  1. Here is the way to achieve it:

    First of all add below code to your theme’s functions.php :

    function wp_get_attachment( $attachment_id ) {

    $attachment = get_post( $attachment_id );
    return array(
        'alt' => get_post_meta( $attachment->ID, '_wp_attachment_image_alt', true ),
        'caption' => $attachment->post_excerpt,
        'description' => $attachment->post_content,
        'href' => get_permalink( $attachment->ID ),
        'src' => $attachment->guid,
        'title' => $attachment->post_title
    );
}

    After that you can use it like :

    $attachment_meta = wp_get_attachment($attachment_id);
echo $attachment_meta['caption'];

    So your final code would be :

    global $product;
$attachment_ids = $product->get_gallery_attachment_ids();

echo '<div class="flexslider"><ul class="slides">';
foreach( $attachment_ids as $attachment_id ) 
{
    echo '<li>';
    echo "<img src=".$image_link = wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id, 'large').">";
    echo '<p>';
    $attachment_meta = wp_get_attachment($attachment_id);
    echo $attachment_meta['caption'];
    echo '</p>';
    echo '</li>';
}
echo '</ul></div>';
