Ahoy, Jennifer!
What a fun day you'll have in
Nassau, spending time swimming with the dolphins at Atlantis Paradise Island. My family booked the
Atlantis Dolphin Cay Deep Water Interaction & Aquaventure a few years ago, and it was an amazing experience. We have some awesome photos with the gorgeous dolphins from our visit - memories we will treasure forever!
Depending on the time you've scheduled your Port Adventure, you should have time, once you return to the ship, to explore the nearby Straw Market. The Straw Market contains lots of booths showcasing merchandise from local craftsmen, and you're able to bargain with the sellers for a fair price. You'll find beautiful handmade hats, baskets, woodcarvings, and more in this bustling market.
I encourage you to attend one of the Port Shopping seminars and speak with the knowledgeable
Port Shopping Guides before you arrive in Nassau. They are experts in savvy shopping, and can tell you how best to negotiate in the markets in port! You'll find times and locations listed for these informational talks in your Personal Navigator, a newsletter you'll receive each evening in your stateroom.
I hope this helps with your planning, and you're able to find some Bahamian treasures to take home from your day in Nassau. Have a magical day! - Diane W.
