Nassau

Nassau, has it all: a world-famous straw market, duty-free shopping, local and international restaurants and bars...all just a few steps away from vibrant turquoise waters. Explore the town's history at Fort Charlotte and the Queen's Staircase or hop on a catamaran for a snorkeling trip or sunset sail.

Activities

  • Take a short walk to Junkanoo Beach, a public beach with great views of the cruise ships and local vendors serving daiquiris and piña coladas in freshly cut coconuts.
  • Go on a snorkeling trip to explore the underwater world that surrounds Nassau or go on a shark diving adventure and get up-close with Caribbean reef sharks.
  • Relive the swashbuckling past on an exciting pirates and dungeons tour of Fort Charlotte and the Pirates of Nassau Museum. (Eye patches and peg legs not included.)
  • Marvel at the flora and watch the famous "marching" flamingoes at Ardastra Gardens and Conservation Center.
