Ports of Call – Nassau, Bahamas

Home » TECHSPO At Sea 2017 » Ports of Call » Ports of Call – Nassau, Bahamas

For a city now known for its warming sun and balmy breezes, Nassau has a tumultuous past. First settled by the English, the area was contested by England, France and Spain. For many years, Nassau was a home base for notorious pirates, and it was burned to the ground by the Spanish on three separate occasions. Since 1740, however, visitors from all over the world in search of both relaxation and adventure have made Nassau their favourite destination.

The One Thing You Don’t Want to Miss

Visit the luxurious Bahamian resort, Atlantis in Paradise Island. Interact with amazing dolphins at Atlantis Dolphin Cay, one of the largest dolphin habitats in the world. Register for the Aquaventure programme, the premier water park in the Caribbean and participate on a Discover Atlantis Tour. View more than 50,000 fascinating species of marine life in the largest open air aquarium in the world.

Other Fun Things to Do

  • Take advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get up close and personal with a dolphin. Have your picture taken while kissing these loving creatures, learn about their anatomy, and pet and feed them while standing in waist-deep water. All at the wonderful facility that is home to Universal Studios’ Flipper, who starred in the 1996 movie of the same name.
  • Take a break and relax on your own semi-private island. Located just a short boat ride away from Nassau, Blackbeard’s Cay is surrounded by crystal clear turquoise water, sandy beaches and swaying palm trees. Or better yet, take a look at Stingray Adventure. This amazing experience could easily be the highlight of your trip.
  • 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.)
  • Go on a glass-bottom-boat tour for a glimpse into the underwater world of the Bahamas.
  • Visit Predator Lagoon, where you’ll see sharks, barracuda and many other creatures from the deep.
  • Join the fun crowd of thrill-seeking SUB aquanauts for an undersea experience you’ll be telling all your friends about.
