One of the highlights of a cruise to the Bahamas or the Caribbean is a stop at a cruise lines private island. Almost all of these islands are located in the Bahamas and are everything you could possibly want for a full day of fun in the sun crystal clear waters, sugar-white beaches, great water sports, tropical drinks, beachside service, and plenty of hammocks nestled among palm trees.
Cruise Lines & Their Islands
These islands are owned by the cruise lines and are for the exclusive use of their guests for the day. Since there is never any more than one ship in port at a time, the islands are not crowded so each guest can go off and relax in their own private piece of paradise.
Facilities
A cruise line private island is its own little city with full-time inhabitants, a power plant, water treatment facilities and even a post office. The islands have bars, restaurants, restrooms, shopping, first aid stations, and water-sports and tour huts. Island ActivitiesWhat is your idea of the perfect day in paradise? Whether its strolling barefoot on a white-sand beach, relaxing on floating beach mat, or doing something a bit more active, youll find it on the private island. These activities include:
Kids and Adults
Kids will find plenty to things to keep them busy during the Private Island experience. Most cruise lines bring their on-board kids programs to the beach so they continue to participate in age specific activities. This can include beach sports, dino and whale digs, treasure hunts, and exploration hikes. Island-style BarbecueAll cruise line private islands include Open Air Dining areas so you dont have to go back to the ship for lunch. These all-you-can-eat buffets include everything youd want in a tropical buffet. Youll enjoy:
Of course, all this is included in your cruise fare. The only thing you have to pay for is bottle water, sodas, beer and tropical drinks all of which you can put on your shipboard account. You do not need to bring cash with you to the private island. Take Over the Ship
Experienced cruisers may want to take a "Been There, Done That" attitude and stay on board the ship while everyone else is on the Private Island. Instead of playing volleyball on the beach and dancing in the Congo line with 2,000 other guest, you can have the ship and the pool all to yourself your own, 100,000-ton private yacht. While youre on board, food and bar service will still be available and you may even find special discounts in the spa. Enjoy it while you can, passengers can return to the ship anytime they want but everyone will need to be back on board before the ship sails at 4 or 5 pm.
