    I just saw the announcement of Lighthouse Point will be welcoming guests starting in summer next year! In your opinion, is Lighthouse Point better than Castaway Cay? And which ship will be going to Lighthouse Point? Thank you!

    Welcome aboard planDisney, K,

    As Ariel's pal Sabastian would say, since life is sweet here, we are glad you sailed by! Life is the bubbles with all of us Disney Cruise Line fans since the latest Lighthouse Point news

    Now, K, with everything that Disney Cruise Line does, you know such wonderful things will surround you on Lighthouse Point, just as it does on Disney Castaway Cay. There will be special areas and activities for every age group, opportunities for excursions and private cabanas and more of the things we have come to expect from a day in paradise aboard a Disney cruise.

    One of the things I’m looking forward to experiencing on Lighthouse Point is the celebration of Bahamian culture, including special programs hosted by local artists to celebrate the traditions of The Bahamas. And, did you know that up on the shore the Disney team is working all day to protect the environment? At least 90 percent of Lighthouse Point’s electricity needs will be met by an onsite solar array. I can’t wait to see the special pier and elevated walkways that are designed to avoid the need for dredging and to limit the impact on the landscape both in the water and on land.

    As you know, K, Lighthouse Point will open for Guests on select sailing in summer 2024. Like you, I dream about going up there and hope we will hear details about the inaugural itineraries and more details about amazing entertainment, dining, retail and so much more soon. Let’s keep an eye on Disney Parks Blog and the Disney Cruise Line website since that is where all the news will be shared first.

    The seaweed is always greener here at planDisney, so I hope you will cruise back by and let us know “what more is you lookin’ for!”

    Wishing you many magical memories,
    Shannon
