Explore the Bahamas

The sparkling waters of Nassau beckon

The Bahamas is an archipelago of more than 700 islands and thousands of cays and rocks. It covers more than 100,000 square miles, starting 50 miles off the southern tip of Florida and stretching to northeastern Cuba. People inhabit only a few dozen of the islands, with most Bahamians living on Grand Bahama and New Providence. Both islands feature many exciting things to do, and they act as great jumping-off points to visit other parts of the country.

Norwegian Ships and Itineraries

The ships are as much a destination as the ports themselves.

Norwegian offers dozens of Bahama-bound cruise itineraries each year. If you only have time for a short break, choose one of the many three-, four-, or five-day Bahamas cruises that set sail from Miami or Port Canaveral in Orlando, Florida, throughout the year. For cruisers with more time on their hands, extend the fun with a seven- or 10-day cruise vacation departing from New York City. 

When you cruise with Norwegian, the ships are as much a destination as the ports themselves. Some of the largest and most impressive ships in Norwegian's award-winning fleet cruise to the Bahamas, including Norwegian Escape, Norwegian Bliss, y Norwegian Encore. Every ship features up to three main dining rooms, a buffet, and a selection of casual eateries. You'll also discover many specialty restaurants for a distinct culinary experience. Thanks to Norwegian's unique Freestyle Dining program, you won't face set dining times or preassigned seating. 

Norwegian keeps the party going all day and night long with live entertainment all over your ship. Start your cruise at the sail-away party on the pool deck. Dance the night away in one of the up to 22 bars and lounges on each ship. You can also enjoy everything from dazzling Cirque du Soleil performances on Norwegian Getaway to the Legends in Concert show on Norwegian Pearl. 

But the fun doesn't stop there. All Norwegian ships feature a spa, shops, and youth programs. You can find plenty of fun actividades en el crucero such as bowling, mini-golf, and a rock-climbing wall that hovers over the ocean. 

Ports and Activities

Adventure, relaxation, shopping -- you can have it all in the Bahamas!

From historic sites and cultural heritage to exotic wildlife, some of the world's most stunning beaches, and delicious cuisine, you'll find something for everyone to enjoy.
