Ahoy, Brian! I am thrilled you cruised by planDisney with this question about one of my favorite island destinations:
Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
Disney Cruise Line's itineraries to the Bahamas and Caribbean usually include a stop at one of its two private destinations:
Lookout Cay and Castaway Cay. And, if you are really lucky, you could find one that goes to both.
Lookout Cay is a beach retreat destination that celebrates the Bahamian culture. Here, you can enjoy many of its offerings that are part of the cruise fare, including True-True BBQ and True-True BBQ Too for lunch, soda machines for a refreshing beverage and ice cream for a sweet treat.
You can soak in the sun along its pink-sand beaches or go for a stroll on the Nature Trail and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you. Like Castaway Cay, it has a family beach and Serenity Bay, reserved for adults. And if you like it better down where it's wetter, you can go for a swim in the ocean or have a splashtastic time at Rush Out Gush Out Water Play with two water slides. Little Mouseketeers can also have a cool time at Sebastian's Cove splash pad.
Lookout Cay also has the Goombay Cultural Center, where you can learn about the Bahamian people and their celebratory Junkanoo Festival. It is spectacular!
You can choose to add extras to your day by booking a
Port Adventure for an additional fee. You can go snorkeling, go fishing, tour the island or go exploring on an ATV. I've snorkeled and toured the island, heading out to see Cathedral Cave and Ocean Hole. We wanted to see a bit of the island and the surrounding ocean, but you could spend the day here with no extras and have a magical time.
Brian, I hope this helps and you find a trip to Lookout Cay on the horizon! If you have any other questions, please come see us again at
planDisney.
SEAS the Adventure!
