A stop at the port city of Nassau in the Bahamas provides many opportunities for cruisers of all activity levels. Types of activities to expect include water sports, sightseeing, beach, gambling or shopping. Don't feel that you have to pre-book your excursions online or onboard ship for each port. This is your vacation and you should always feel free to wander about, take in the local atmosphere, and explore this island paradise on your own.

One of the most popular shore excursions in Nassau, the island's capital, would have to be a visit to the lost city of Atlantis, or its recreation anyway in a tour called Atlantis Beach Day. This tour includes the opportunity to view over 100,000 fish at the Discover Atlantis aquarium. Wear comfortable shoes as the tour involves lots of walking. Wrap up your tour by spending a relaxing afternoon along the white, sandy beaches soaking up the sun in the breathtakingly beautiful Bahamas!

Colorful native birds, flamingos and parrots, are among the collection of Bahamian land animals that await you when you embark on a tour of the tropical Ardastra Gardens. Enjoy hand feeding tame parrots and watching the world famous marching flamingos. Get back on the bus for a narrated tour of the city of Nassau that includes stops at Fort Fincastle, Water Tower and the Queen's Staircase.

How about a shore excursion that provides a look into the history of the local area. The Caribbean Queen Snorkel Tour starts with a narrated historical tour that goes on to complete your fun filled day with an adventurous one-hour snorkeling experience off the scenic island of Athol. The boat is equipped with freshwater showers, which is a big plus after snorkeling through the reef. Plan on 2-3 hours for this excursion.

What could be more cool than interacting with friendly dolphins at Nassau's Dolphin Encounter? Start with a 30-minute orientation and then spend time in the sea with getting close to and even petting the dolphins. Items available for purchase at the dolphin lagoon include lunch, professional photos and videos of your dolphin experience. The trip to the lagoon takes an hour each way and there will be about 20 minutes of walking required. Plan on about 4-1/2 hours for this excursion.
