BLUE LAGOON ISLAND BEACH & SEA LION ENCOUNTER
Excursion Details
A private isle located about five kilometres from Nassau, Blue Lagoon Island is home to an array of marine life. On this excursion lasting approximately four hours, you won’t just spot some of that wonderful marine life – you’ll actually get to meet to one of the island’s most charming residents: the sea lion.
Begin with a boat ride from the port of approximately 45 minutes, transferring you to Blue Lagoon Island, also known as Salt Cay after its lagoon acted as a salt marsh prior to the 19th century. Having been divided into smaller groups, it’s then time to move to custom-made platforms placed waist-deep in the lagoon, where you’ll be able to interact with sea lions for around 15 minutes, while the experience is captured on camera. During your time on the island, you’ll also be able to spot other ocean-dwellers like Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, nurse sharks and southern stingrays in their natural environment.
Finally, head to Blue Lagoon Island Beach and enjoy approximately three hours of free time. Take a dip or sit back and relax on a lounge chair before the return boat trip back to the port, lasting around 45 minutes.
