Sailing Itinerary

Overview
Tampa is a city on Tampa Bay, along Florida’s Gulf Coast. A major business center, it’s also known for its museums and other cultural offerings. Busch Gardens is an African-themed amusement park with thrill rides and animal-viewing areas. The historic Ybor City neighborhood, developed by Cuban and Spanish cigar-factory workers at the turn of the 20th century, is a dining and nightlife destination.
Overview
Located just 50 miles of the east coast of Miami is the tiny fishing paradise known as Bimini.Bimini is not only the nearest (hence the name gateway) and most accessible island by boat, but also the smallest of the 700 islands in the archipelago called The Bahamas. The island is rich in history and has played host to famous persons from as far back as Ponce de Leon, the Spanish Explorer who came in search of the Fountain of Youth in 1513. Bimini was the first island in the Caribbean to have a casino, The Bimini Rod & Gun Club, the remnants of which today serve as a home. Bimini is hardly a palm fringed paradise. Abundant casuarina trees and older homes give it a summer camp look. And the rustic bars and hotels that cater to the loads of game fishermen, divers & snorklers lend Bimini a slightly honky-tonk atmosphere. But the exotic of the tropics is never far from her coasts. Divers are all over the shallow turquoise waters, and glass bottom boats load up passengers to view "Atlantis" off North Bimini's Paradise Point.
Overview
Grand Bahama is the northernmost island of the Bahamas archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean. It's known for its beaches, reef-lined coves and mangrove swamps, as well as its all-inclusive resorts and golf courses. Freeport, the largest city, is near popular beaches like Xanadu, and its International Bazaar offers duty-free shopping. Port Lucaya showcases Bahamian music and straw crafts at its Port Lucaya Marketplace.
Overview
There’s no such thing as a ‘one-size-fits-all’ vacation — especially on Perfect Day® at CocoCay®. Whether your ideal beach getaway involves larger-than-life thrills or unwinding at a peaceful waterfront chill spot, you’ll find there’s no right or wrong way to make the most out of your adventure when you hop onboard the best CocoCay cruises.
Overview
Nassau, the capital of The Bahamas, located on New Providence Island and Freeport, located on Grand Bahama Island offer a variety of experiences from non-stop excitement to peaceful relaxation. Nassau is the center of industry, commerce and communications and presents a special charm which captures the elegance of the old world while at the same time incorporating up-to-the-minute modern features. Here one will find well-preserved colonial buildings, exciting attractions, duty free shopping, one of the largest straw markets in the Caribbean, thrilling land and sea sports, pristine beaches, delightful cuisine and unique cultural activities. Beautiful Paradise Island is linked to Nassau by bridge and has gorgeous beaches, luxury hotels, a large casino and first class entertainment.
