Join a specialized guide for a scenic stroll around the stunning, private isle of Blue Lagoon, where you’ll discover historical treasures, native plants and marine life. This tour includes time to enjoy the beautiful lagoon beach, before or after your tour. Cast away from Nassau on a large ferry and delight in a 30- to 40-minute scenic cruise across Caribbean waters to the private tropical paradise of Blue Lagoon Island. Alongside a local guide, head out on foot along backroad trails lined with coconut palms, then venture into the native coppice forest teeming with tropical birds while hearing the island’s colorful history dating back to 1875. Blue Lagoon Island is home to a thriving ecosystem of coral reefs and marine life including sharks, stingrays and dolphins. Listen along to tales of pirates who used to cull salt from the lagoon, as well as the European royalty and American luminaries who once stayed on the island. The guided portion of the tour concludes at the entrance Watch Tower, a timeworn limestone concrete landmark that stands guard over the lagoon and offers spectacular views of the entire island. Swim, sun, shop, or dine on island specialties before catching your return boat back to port. Later, take the return ferry back to your ship.
