What it's like
Blue Lagoon Island is a private island a short boat ride from Nassau. Visitors come for the water, where the day is built around snorkeling, dolphin swims and encounters with sea lions and stingrays. It is reached by ferry rather than on foot.
A visit is a full day out on the water, usually about 6 to 8 hours. Reef-safe sunscreen is required on the island. The pristine beach gives you a place to rest between swims and snorkel time.
