Best Nassau, Bahamas shore excursions
![celebrity cruise excursions nassau](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2022/04/Nassau-Bahamas_Justin-Crowder-EyeEm.jpg?width=3840)
Island food and culinary tour
3-3.5 hours, easy, $$.
Bahamas food and beverage excursions are an ideal way to immerse yourself in the culture of the islands. You'll feast on island specialties and favorites such as conch fritters or salad, rock lobster, traditional cornbread-like Johnny cakes and tropical punches laced with rum. Most cruise lines offer food tours that stop at multiple local eateries. There may be walking involved, so be sure to read your cruise line's description.
Blue Lagoon beach break
Varies, easy to moderate, $$-$$$.
Some of the best excursions in Nassau are to Blue Lagoon Island, a privately owned island with a beach, food, water sports and other activities. You can choose the standard beach break option with lunch, beach games and use of water noodles and tubes. Or you can upgrade to a tour that includes snorkeling or swimming with stingrays, dolphins, sharks and even sea lions. Additional activities can be purchased upon arrival on the island.
Scuba diving with sharks
4.5 hours, moderate, $$$-$$$$.
If you are a certified scuba diver and have ever considered diving with sharks, this is your excursion. The shark dives involve one reef dive, followed by a second dive with everyone kneeling in the sand on the bottom as the shark feeder doles out his goodies. You've heard the term "sharknado?" It's a real thing and being in one is an adrenaline rush you'll never forget.
I should warn the shark-timid among you that because Caribbean reef sharks are plentiful in the waters surrounding Nassau and because dive shops have been doing baited shark dives here for years, you may encounter sharks on any dive in Nassau, though at a bit more distance than during the shark feeds. In fact, I've never not seen a shark while diving here.
Paradise Island and Aquaventure Oasis Waterpark
All day, moderate, $$$$.
Excursions that include access to Atlantis Paradise Island Bahamas seem to no longer mention the name of the mega-resort that made Paradise Island famous. If you've always wanted to go, excursions labeled Aquaventure are your ticket.
The day pass includes access to miles of beaches, the on-site casino, and the Aquaventure water park featuring 141 acres of slides, swimming areas, river rides, and wave areas. The pass also allows you to dine in the resort's eateries, explore a myriad of shops or even add an aquatic animal experience like a dolphin swim.
You can purchase Atlantis day passes independently, but the advantage of booking your visit as an excursion is that transportation will be included.

Best shore excursions in Freeport, Grand Bahama Island
![celebrity cruise excursions nassau](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2022/04/Freeport-Grand-Bahama_Chinedu-Ernesto.jpg?width=3840)
Freeport island tour, beach and shopping
4 hours, easy, $.
Shore excursions that bundle a tour with a beach break and shopping are always a good choice in the Bahamas. You get to see a bit of the island, learn its history, shop for souvenirs and get in some coveted beach time, all with easy transportation. This kind of tour is especially useful if you've never been to Grand Bahama Island. For a small amount of money, you get to scope the place out for your adventures on your next Bahamas cruise.
Pirate's Cove beach, zipline and waterpark
4 hours, moderate, $$$.
If zip lining is your thing, this is a good place to get your fix. The beachside zip line has options for starting at 50 feet up or 30 feet, making it ideal for newbies wanting to try the experience. Since this excursion also includes time at the beach and floating water park, consider it a deal.
Glass bottom boat shark experience
3 hours, easy, $$$.
Want to see Caribbean reef sharks without putting your toes in the water? This excursion takes you on a glass-bottom boat ride to waters where Caribbean reef sharks have been fed. The boat has ample deck space for sunning when you aren't watching the action below the boat. It's a fun way to spend a day out on the water with an opportunity to see these predators and other colorful tropical fish without fear. Typical Bahamian refreshments round out the fun.
Blue hole snorkeling
5 hours, moderate, $$$.
My rule of thumb is to snorkel at every opportunity while in the Bahamas. It's a fun and easy way to take a peek beneath the waves at the colorful sea life found in these waters. When you book a snorkeling excursion in the Bahamas, gear is provided, including snorkeling vests to keep you afloat.
For the best Bahamas snorkeling, choose a blue hole snorkeling excursion. Blue holes are found throughout the Bahamas and are essentially open-topped caverns, so it's like swimming in a fishbowl. Some are landlocked, where they may be filled with either fresh or salt water, and inhabited by a wide range of aquatic life, including crabs, lobsters, octopus and fish. Others are offshore, below the surface of the ocean, creating a mini reef environment to explore.
This excursion involves a lengthy ride, but it's definitely worth it.
Swim with the pigs
1.5 hours, easy, $$$.
Swimming pigs are kind of a big deal in the Bahamas. Animal lovers can enjoy time in shallow water watching (and even feeding) these silly pigs. Most of the cruise line private islands also offer pig swims, but the one in Freeport does not involve a boat ride, which may make it more appealing to some. You'll also get time to hang out on Crystal Beach and buy lunch.

Best Bahamas shore excursions from cruise line private islands
![celebrity cruise excursions nassau](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2022/04/Snorkeling_Stephen-Frink.jpg?width=3840)
Snorkeling from shore or by boat
Varies, moderate, $-$$.
Cruise ship private islands make snorkeling easy. Most of the islands will offer snorkeling gear for rent, and you can snorkel right from the beach. (If you, like me, never miss an opportunity to put your face in the water, consider buying your own snorkel gear for future sailings.) Optional boat excursions to primo snorkeling spots are also possible from some islands.
1-1.5 hours, moderate, $-$$.
Kayaking from the cruise line private islands gives you a new perspective of these fun playgrounds. Tours are led by experienced guides who can point out sea life in shallow water while leading you along the shore of the tropical paradise. Beginners are welcome and life jackets are provided.
Stingray City Bahamas
1.5 hours, easy, $$.
While the Stingray City experience has been popular in Grand Cayman for years, it's relatively new to the Bahamas. Stingray City Bahamas is located among the Berry Islands, home to Royal Caribbean's Perfect Day at CocoCay and Norwegian's Great Stirrup Cay. You'll be taken on a short speedboat ride to a shallow sandy spot in a location where stingrays congregate. Your guide will provide fish to feed the rays, which swoop in and suck the fish from your hand. It's a fun outing if you haven't done it before and it doesn't take away too much of your beach time on the island.
Horseback riding by land and sea
1.25 hours, moderate, $$$.
Carnival offers a horseback riding tour from Half Moon Cay that includes a brief venture into the sea with your horse. The minimum age is 10. As the mother of a horse-loving daughter, I can tell you that riding in the ocean was one of her favorite cruise memories ever. No riding experience is required, but you must be able to follow directions and pay attention to your guide for your own safety as well as that of the horses and other riders. One other thing to know: There will be poo, both on land and in the water.

Bottom line
Bahamas shore excursions typically focus on activity in the water, but if shopping, food tours or sightseeing are more your thing, you'll find those options as well. The Bahamas is made up of a culturally rich collection of islands that have a reputation for welcoming visitors with arms wide open. From simple beach break excursions to full-day tours, you can easily find something that floats your boat in the Bahamas.

Nassau, Bahamas
The Bahamas' capital city offers travelers the chance to swim with dolphins, dive among Caribbean reef sharks and cruise the coastline on a speedboat excursion. Living up to its name, Paradise Island is home to the world-famous Atlantis resort, a tropical utopia that boasts 5 miles of beaches, a 141-acre waterpark, snorkeling adventures off a catamaran, an expansive casino and much more. Reggae lovers can relax during a daytrip to the Marley Resort and Spa, while foodies can indulge on conch fritters, chocolate bon bons and handcrafted rum cocktails on a tasting tour of local eateries. Visit the 1793 Fort Fincastle, take a photo atop the Queen's Staircase and bargain with vendors at the Straw Market on Bay Street.

I see now only Celebrity excursions are allowed, but what about going off to do some shopping, can you still do that?

Unlikely. I believe their is a tour that includes shopping but just getting off the ship and wandering on your own is no longer a option .
![celebrity cruise excursions nassau Thanks](https://content.invisioncic.com/j283755/reactions/react_thanks.png)
Celebrity considers getting off the ship to go shopping on your own to be an "an on your own tour" and it's not permitted in Nassau:
Eastern Caribbean On your own tours are permitted in St. Croix and St. Thomas. Excursions provided by Celebrity Cruises are required in St. Maarten*, Nassau and Tortola.

No argument from me. Unfortunately, Celebrity has no choice when the Bahamas toughens entry requirements. 😟

Not a big loss for us. We have the Bahamas as a stop on our upcoming November cruise on Summit. Bahamas is one of two things these days for us...
- Stay on board and enjoy a quieter day
- Take a walk around Paradise Lake, where the mega yachts dock. Some fun boats to see, and if the owners are not on board the crew can be quite chatty.
If it's Celebrity tours only, then is a stay on board day for us.
If Bahamas is a new stop. or a stop you want to do a tour at, we did like the detailed tour of Atlantis, including their Aquarium. Not sure if that's available as a Celebrity tour, but that was a fun thing we did one of the first couple of times we stopped there.

We have the Celebrity “Discover Nassau Harbor” tour booked again for the day after tomorrow. It’s 1.45 hours and we went on it last week and had such an enjoyable time, we booked it again! After all, if you want to get off the ship, even just for a short while but not go to the beach or go snorkeling, there aren’t really a lot of options.

If that is the case, maybe they had better start vaccinating them. If we all have to be vaccinated to get on the ship, the odds of someone bringing the virus to the island are very small.

Wish that was offered on our B2B. All ports only have 4 excursions offered.

Have you already sailed on your B2B or is it coming up in the near future?
Just checked the X app for Nassau excursions on Friday and there were 8 different Blue Lagoon excursions, 3 different Pearl Beach excursions, a Best of Nassau (bus) tour, Essential Nassau (bus) tour, and a couple of other beach-related excursions along with our cheap $39 Nassau Harbor (boat) tour.
Nassau has been designated as a level 4 "avoid travel" by the CDC.
Be careful! Being on a Celebrity excursion doesn't negate Covid.

Someone today told me his parents flew to the Bahamas 2 wks ago for a land based vacation. Very strict testing rules pre and post flight,. They enjoyed their resort stay but did not go around very much. Suggests Covid numbers may be high there. Perhaps a good port to make an on board ship day!

Our B2B is in October on the Edge. All beach excursions, maybe they will add more later.
3 hours ago, Gatordad1967 said: If that is the case, maybe they had better start vaccinating them.
The general poverty of many Caribbean nations makes it difficult for the governments to provide vaccinations to their people. The cost of the vaccines is prohibitive; the cost of the infrastructure to give approx 300,000 [for the Bahamas] sets of shots [refrigeration/preservation of the vaccine; shipment to vaccination centers across hundreds of islands; medical personnel; record keeping; the cost of 600,000 needles/syringes; ...] is prohibitive.
I have called on the various cruise lines and the US govt to work together to help -- for example, every cruise ship could give one hundred plus vaccinations every day in port using ship personnel and needles/syringes/vaccine provided by the US gov't, in port facilities provided by the local gov't - force the local gov't to grant waivers of liability for the medical personnel and the cruise line [for when the long-term adverse effects of these supposedly safe shots are discovered and when Bill Gates activates the nanochips that we have all welcomed into our bodies].
This would improve the health of the islanders, and would slowly allow the cruise passengers to get back to our touring as usual! Completely selfish by the cruise ships, the cruise passengers and me!
