is atlantis a beach day?

[momofteens]

Never been to the Bahamas and I'm wondering how I can visit the Atlantis resort without resorting to sneaking in at night and dodging guards. Is their a fee I can pay to use the beach? Is the aquarium, restaurants a seperate admission? Is it off limits completely to cruise passengers? Do I have to book a room at the Comfort Suites to have a drink at Atlantis? Should I go to Cable beach instead? Can't wait to get the scoop you guys.

YOu only need to pay to use Atlantis (either Atlantis, an excursion or Comfort Suites) if you want access to the beach and slides. The shops, Casino, Restaurants, Lobby, Marina shops are all open to the public at no charge.

 

The aquarium becomes free after 6, I think, and there is no need to sneak on the beach at night, security is not there. But also, all beach services and slides are closed. But a afternooon stroll is free, or at least it was when I went.

atlantis sent this to me when I enquired about full access day pass

 

 

 

An adventure awaits you, inspired by the ocean and myth of the lost continent.

 

Based on availability at the resort, we now sell day passes for $105 for adults and $75 for children (age 4 to 12). This pass will give you full access to the attractions on the resort including the Aquaventure and the Dig. These passes are only available at the resort in the Casino or the lower level of the Royal Towers and are not sold in advance.

 

Atlantis.com is where the exploration begins. There we have detailed accounts of the Lost City with photos and videos for you to enjoy. Our website offers vacation package options, nightly room rates, restaurant details, entertainment information and so much more.

 

We look forward to helping you plan your Journey.

 

hope this helps out, don't have to sneak in

We were at the Atlantis beach last year- it is a beautiful beach, but it was fairly rough, so we could not swim that day. Not sure how often this occurs.
