Nassau Night time Views

The view of the harbor at night is brilliant. The boats and the town are illuminated and reflected in the water. We enjoyed walking up on deck and taking in the night time views.

Festival Place

Festival Place is basically the tourist center of Nassau. This is where you pass through security both entering and exiting Nassau. There are plenty of guide books and maps of the attractions of Nassau available. This is also where you can arrange an island tour, water taxi or boat excursion. There are some cute shops within festival place selling everything from local crafts to jewelry.

Prince George's Wharf Prince George Wharf Review

Prince George's Wharf is where the cruise ships dock. It is also the place to catch a water taxi or a boat tour.

Hog Island Lighthouse Hog Island Lighthouse Review

Hog Island Lighthouse is the first landmark you see as you enter the port besides the Atlantis towers. The lighthouse itself fits in with the simply beauty of the island. It is more of a representation of the people and the everyday life than the larger than life Atlantis resort.

Arrival by Ship

As this was my first ever time coming to the Bahamas and especially to Nassau, I was sure to make it up on deck for arrival. Besides the fact that is when the belly flop contest was taking place, the views all around the ship were amazing.

I hadn't been on a ship coming into port in nearly 11 years to the day. And I can assure you this is how I always thought it should be.

Be sure to take note of the light house on the port side and the waterfront buildings on the starboard, which includes the infamous Senor Frogs.
