Cruise ships dock at Prince George Wharf, Nassau's bustling port that can accommodate up to seven ships at a time. This well-equipped harbor serves as the gateway to your Bahamian adventure and is conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Nassau. Cruise ships generally arrive early in the morning and passengers can enjoy a full day exploring Nassau's multifaceted appeal before returning to the ship in the evening. The port area is a vibrant hub with facilities such as an information center, restaurants, a shopping village, and a straw market. Here, you can also book local tours, rent vehicles, or even embark on a thrilling underwater submarine tour.
Day 3 Half Moon Cay, Bahamas
In contrast to many destinations, large cruise ships do not dock directly at Half Moon Cay due to the island's commitment to environmental preservation. Instead, they anchor offshore and passengers are transported via tender boats, which further adds to the unique adventure. Cruise ships typically arrive in the early morning, giving passengers an entire day to indulge in the island’s beauty and facilities. The harbor area itself is well-equipped with a welcome center, various rental facilities for sports equipment, and a lively marketplace offering local arts and crafts.
