lauramsr Posted May 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2009 My lil cousin is interested in going to Atlantis. Namely, she wants to go to the waterpark and swim with the dolphins. Can we go from Coco Cay to Nassau? If so, what are some reliable/safe ways to go from CocoCay to Nassau for this excursion? Thanks. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted May 11, 2009 #3 Share Posted May 11, 2009 When you are at Coco Cay, essentially, you're still on the ship. Any excursion, or drink you purchase is charged to your seapass. You can't go anywhere except the island or the ship. Consider it a sea day, on land! It's much nicer than Atlantis, anyway! And, you've already paid for it!

Thanks. :p While both CocoCay and Nassau are on islands of the Bahamas, they are nowhere near each other. CocoCay is the only place that you go on the day that you go to CocoCay. :) (CocoCay is Little Stirrup Cay and Atlantis is on Paradise Island) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely_Star Posted May 11, 2009 #6 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Which ship are you sailing on? We will be stopping at CocoCay and Nassau on the Monarch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv4dacruise Posted May 11, 2009 #7 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I think nassau is 175 miles from Coco Cay Not sure the exact distance, but that seems awfully far. I remember being on the Norwegian Dawn going to Great Stirrup Cay and because of weather we had to leave and go to Nassau. Took maybe 2 or 3 hours to get there. If i had to guesstimate i would say between 15 and 20 miles away. Anyone else have any insight?..... Oh yeah, to the OP: As other have said, it would be impossible to do what your asking about.

Aquahound Posted May 11, 2009 #9 Share Posted May 11, 2009 If i had to guesstimate i would say between 15 and 20 miles away. The actual distance from Coco Cay to Nassau is about 80 miles. Look at Google Earth. Nassau is the easiest to find. From there, look NW from Nassau to the string of islands stretching North. Coco Cay and Great Stirrup Cay (NCL) are at the top of that chain. If you zoom in, you can see two cruise ships; one at each private island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that info, i did not think it was that far, but at the same time, when we were told we would have to skip the private island and head to Nassau early is also when i started hitting the Margarita's pretty hard :p It felt like we flew there....:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTMay1917 Posted May 12, 2009 #11 Share Posted May 12, 2009 One thing you may want to do is consider switching your cruise to one of the 4 night cruises that actually goes to Nassau. I think the 3 night ones do skip it. They are not all that much more money and then you actually get a whole day to wonder around Atlantis. I'm not sure of your situation and it may be to late to switch but its just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
