Experiencing Nassau

A normal cruise ship experience doesn't do justice to Nassau.  There is incredible history here.  One of the most interesting things we never tire of is having a local driver take us all around the island, telling of his life there, where he lives, what he knows about the island, etc.  This is a great "windy weather day" experience when we can't go out on the water.

Nassau is very close to Rose Island and its beautiful snorkeling grounds where we often go on pretty days with a picnic lunch to spend the day.  And of course, no trip to Nassau is complete without a trip to Paradise Island, commercialized though it is.

Our normal rates apply for all around Nassau/Rose Island cruising:  $400 for two people, with 2 meals per day onboard, accommodations in master cabin with queen bed and tub/shower, snorkeling and fishing gear, along with many extras.

Just right for The Bahamas.




Blue Tang has proven to be just perfect for exploring the hidden pearls among the 700 islands of The Bahamas.

A 42-foot motor-yacht, with plenty of living and sight-seeing spaces, along with comfortable amenities for 4-5 people, it is a cozy, safe, and fun way to experience the islands.

Although these photos don't show it, Blue Tang is equipped with two heads (or bathrooms) with showers, a computer station with two laptops, as well as a flat screen TV with built-in DVD, an ice-maker and blender on the aft deck, and numerous books, cards, and games for your enjoyment.
