Luxury Cruises to the Bahamas From Florida

Feel the tropical sun on your face and the breeze in your hair on our luxurious Bahamas cruises from Florida. White sand beaches and aquamarine seas await, with plenty of chances to snorkel over coral reefs in rainbow colors, see dolphins swimming in the wild, and relax in the shade of a palm tree with an ice-cold rum punch.

Our Bahamas cruises conveniently depart from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, and Orlando. You’ll visit some of the most enchanting destinations in the archipelago. Nassau is an intriguing mix of stately Victorian and colorful Caribbean architecture and gorgeous beaches. In Bimini, join a catamaran cruise along the coast, or snorkel over a wreck. CocoCay, our award-winning private island, is the place to fly down North America’s tallest waterslide, or to unwind in the luxury of a private overwater cabana.

Itineraries

Featured ports of call, perfect day at cococay.

Unwind in paradise at CocoCay, our private island destination with something for every pace and taste. Whizz down North America’s tallest waterslide or gaze down on this tropical paradise from a hot air balloon. Sip ice-cold cocktails at the swim-up bar in Oasis Lagoon, the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean, and jump the waves in Thrill Waterpark. Indulge yourself in the ultimate luxury, a private, overwater cabana with its own slide, perfect for gliding into the aquamarine water.

The Bahamian capital of Nassau is a delightful mix of culture, cuisine, and blissful beaches. Climb the historic Queen’s Staircase in the 18th century Fort Fincastle. Snorkel over the reefs fringing tiny Pearl Island, and sample rum at John Watling’s Distillery. Try the watersports along Cable Beach, or indulge in watery fun at the Aquaventure waterpark, where you can ride the white water of the Rapids River and see sharks circling in Predator Lagoon.

Beautiful Bimini, fringed with white sand beaches, mangroves, and coconut palms, basks in the aquamarine Caribbean. This is a paradise for snorkeling among shoals of dazzling tropical fish, deep-sea fishing, wreck diving, and blissful days on gorgeous beaches. Visit the enchanting Dolphin House Museum, lovingly built by hand out of shells, beach glass, and other recycled materials by a local preservationist, or hand-feed stingrays at Honeymoon Harbor.

Top Bahamas FAQs

When’s the best time to take a cruise to The Bahamas?

Celebrity Cruises sails to The Bahamas year-round. The peak season is from December to early spring, while May and June tend to be wetter. Rain tends to fall in the late afternoon in short, sharp showers, so this shouldn’t be a deterrent from traveling.

Hurricane season is typically from June to November although, fortunately, The Bahamas is rarely affected by hurricanes. There are many systems in place to detect any hurricane weather along your route, ensuring your ship’s captain and crew will be able to chart a path around any bad weather or make modifications to the itinerary to keep you safe. Celebrity’s state-of-the-art ships are built for stability, keeping movement in rough seas to a minimum. 

See our blog post about cruising during hurricane season for more information.

Do I need a passport?

It is the responsibility of each guest to identify and obtain all required travel documents and have them available at the pier when necessary. Before leaving home, take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the required travel documents you will be asked to provide prior to boarding the ship. You’ll find more information here . 

Not all Bahamas cruises require a passport. If you are an American citizen traveling from the U.S. to The Bahamas or Mexico on a closed-loop cruise, starting and ending at the same U.S. port, a state-issued ID and an original U.S. birth certificate are sufficient. 

On Bahamas cruises that call at other Caribbean ports, you can enter with your U.S. passport book, passport card, Trusted Traveler card (Nexus, SENTRI, or FAST), or an enhanced driver’s license. See our blog post for more information.

What should I pack for a cruise to The Bahamas?

When packing for a cruise to The Bahamas, you’ll need clothing for a warm, sometimes humid climate. Bring plenty of beachwear, a sun hat, sunglasses, coverups, water shoes if you’re visiting coral beaches, and reef-friendly sunblock. 

If you book a snorkeling excursion, all gear will be provided. If there are places where you may want to snorkel independently, consider bringing your own equipment. 

Throughout the ship, casual resort wear, sundresses, shorts, polos, or button-downs are appropriate, paired with sandals, low heels, and loafers. In main and specialty dining, we ask guests to refrain from wearing swimsuits, see-through coverups or robes, bare feet, tank tops, T-shirts, and baseball caps. 

Smart Casual attire is required for entry to main dining, specialty dining, and the Celebrity Theatre. Smart Casual means you look comfortable yet tasteful in a dress, skirt, long pants, or jeans with a stylish top or button-down. Shorts and flip-flops are not considered Smart Casual.

Each itinerary features one to two more “formal” nights that we call Evening Chic. Evening Chic means you dress to impress, glamorous and sophisticated in your own way, with a cocktail dress, skirt, slacks, or designer jeans, an elegant dress top, or blazer—some guests even pack a tuxedo or gown for onboard photos. 

The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening. If you do not wish to participate in Evening Chic, Smart Casual attire is acceptable for dining and attending the theater.

What are some things I can do on my cruise?

The Bahamas offers a range of activities to enjoy during your cruise. In Nassau, you could relax on beautiful beaches on Pearl Island or the Blue Lagoon. Join a watercolor painting class, snorkel over coral reefs, and even swim with friendly pigs. Learn about Nassau’s history, and sample conch fritters, the local specialty. If you’re traveling with kids, you could spend a day exploring Aquaventure waterpark at Atlantis Paradise Island and its waterslides, pools, river rapids, and vast aquarium.

In Bimini, you could relax on a pristine beach in an exclusive resort and swim in the warm, crystal-clear water. If you prefer a more active day, you could hand-feed wild stingrays, swim among reef sharks, or snorkel over the wreck of the Sapona, now colonized by tropical fish.

Perfect Day at CocoCay, our award-winning private island, is the place where you can be as adventurous or as indulgent as you wish. Fly down the tallest waterslide in North America, or whizz along a zipline. Take in the views from 450 feet above the shore in a helium balloon. Enjoy swimming in the largest freshwater lagoon pool in the Caribbean. Or elevate your experience with a luxurious private cabana, either on the powdery beach at Chill Island or perched directly over the aquamarine water.

How long are Bahamas cruises?

Cruises to The Bahamas are three to six nights long. On the shortest Bahamas cruises, you will have a day to explore Nassau and a full day to enjoy the many amenities of your Celebrity Cruises ship. 

Other short cruises include Bimini and CocoCay, or a different combination of Key West and Nassau. Slightly longer voyages of five nights visit Key West, Bimini, and CocoCay. On a six-night voyage from Tampa, meanwhile, you will visit Nassau and Bimini and have three full days to enjoy the luxurious amenities of the ship.

What ports do you visit?

We visit three ports in The Bahamas: Nassau, Bimini, and Perfect Day at CocoCay, Royal Caribbean’s award-winning private island.

What can I do on board the ship?

Celebrity’s luxurious ships offer a wealth of activities. Bask by the shimmering pool, join a yoga or meditation class in the Fitness Center, or indulge in a blissful treatment in the Spa.

You’ll find a wide variety of places to dine, with menus crafted by our Michelin-starred chef. Enjoy BBQ specialties at the al fresco Lawn Club Grill (on Celebrity Silhouette and Celebrity Reflection) and marvel at the antics of the 3D characters who “prepare” your dinner in Le Petit Chef. 

Enjoy the ship’s upscale bars and lounges, from the lively Martini Bar, where skilled mixologists entertain as they prepare your cocktail, to the beautiful Sunset Bar, a popular gathering place for pre-dinner drinks with friends, with infinite views of the blue ocean. You’ll find live music all over the ship late into the night, whether you want to dance, listen to jazz, or attend a Broadway-quality show in the Theatre.

Elevate your experience on board by choosing The Retreat , where you’ll luxuriate in a beautiful suite and have access to an exclusive lounge and the exceptional Luminae at the Retreat restaurant.

Where do Bahamas cruises depart from?

Celebrity’s Bahamas cruises sail from three ports in Florida: Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and Tampa.

The Bahamas are a cruising destination well-known to offer some of the most exciting and family-oriented cruise excursions in the world. Those who like active-style excursions will be thrilled by an Atlantis Aquaventure filled with waterslides, special effects, and marine life, or explore Forts & Pirates in Nassau. Those more interesting in the culinary side of a Bahamas cruise can enjoy a Taste of Key West, featuring the finest cuisine of the area all in one day. All this, and more on your Bahamas cruise.

• Atlantis Aquaventure (Nassau) For a wet and wild day filled with new features, special effects and waterslides galore—choose this Nassau excursion. There are 7-story slides, ruins to explore (The Dig) and even over 50,000 sea creatures in the open-air marine habitat. So whether you’re playing in the Paradise Lagoon or exploring the marine environment, you’ll be sure to have an eye-opening and exciting day.  

• Cocoa Beach Surf Lessons (Port Canaveral) If you think you’re up for it, try this excursion and learn a new skill, or refine an old one. Take surfing lessons and ride a few waves—you’ll learn the technique and how to be safe in a small ratio of teachers to students, and even get a rashguard and surfboard. Cowabungah!  

• Kayak Adventure and Snorkel Combo (Cococay) If you love to paddle through the bay, but can’t leave out an underwater adventure, you can have both with this excursion. Start off with a kayak around CocoCay, navigating through clear and turquoise water with ease. Then, hop in and get acquainted with a luscious underwater environment as you snorkel through the deep blue waters.  

• A Taste of Key West (Key West, Florida) Key West has a bevy of cultural and culinary sites to visit, so don’t miss out on a thing with this excursion! Key Lime Pie, seafood treats and more are waiting for you on the streets of Key West. You’ll sample favorites at Pepper’s—where they offer some of the tastiest salsas and sauces. Then, head to the Sunset Tiki Bar and Grille for seafood delicacies. Finally, you’ll head to the famous Kermit’s Key Lime Shoppe for the finest pie you’ll ever try, even featured on the Food Network.  

• Blue Lagoon Dolphin Encounter (Nassau) This excursion offers you a once-in-a-lifetime experience—the chance to meet a playful dolphin. First, you’ll learn about the species on a cruise to Blue Lagoon Island. Then, you will have 30 minutes to interact with your dolphin – petting, feeding and playing with these sweet creatures – before taking a memorable photo.  

• Forts & Pirates (Nassau) Get a historic view of Nassau’s infamous past of pirates with this Royal Caribbean Bahamas excursion. Visit sites like Rawson Square, Fort Fincastle, the Queen’s Staircase and Fort Charlotte, all while learning about the history and legend of the region. Then, you’ll visit the Pirates of Nassau Museum, featuring wax figures, recreated battles, weaponry and a vista of the past.
