Bahamas: Great Stirrup Cay & Grand Bahama Island on Norwegian Gem
Cruise, Ocean cruise
Get away to paradise in the Bahamas with Norwegian. From scenic wetlands to miles of pristine beaches and trails ideal for biking and hiking, Jacksonville’s Big & Little Talbot islands are your ideal backdrop for a day of relaxation, exploration or a little of both. Journey from Freeport to Lucayan National Park to hike among the pines and mangroves, explore one of the underwater caves or recline on a secluded beach. On our private island, Great Stirrup Cay, you can unwind in a private luxury villa situated along our exclusive lagoon and indulge in a massage at Mandara Spa.
Enjoy the more intimate, relaxed atmosphere of our mid-size ship, Norwegian Gem® while sailing to top destinations. This sparkling cruise ship is the perfect choice for year-round cruises in style. Sail to the The Caribbean, Bermuda, or Bahamas and toss your schedule to the breeze. Fuel up for the day’s activities with your favorite beverage from Starbucks. With the award-winning Mandara Spa and Thermal Suite, hot tubs and pool, pampering “me time” is a must! Then roll into good times in the casino. The excitement doesn’t end when the sun goes down, with live entertainment and unique bars and lounges, from Sugarcane Mojito Bar to Maltings Beer & Whiskey and more. Savor every moment with a wide range of delicious specialty and complimentary dining options, including Cagney’s Steakhouse and La Cucina Italian restaurant. You won’t want to miss cruising to unforgettable destinations on this gem!
