Bahamas Cruise - Nassau

On Saturday, we docked in Nassau, Bahamas. We got off the ship and did some shopping at the strawmarket and other shops and got a few souvenirs. Then we did a little sightseeing, however there wasn't much to see.... except for the crystal clear water!!! It was beautiful!

That afternoon we went on a snorkeling tour. We had thought about doing an excursion through the cruise ship, but ended up finding a booth in Nassua offering snorkeling trips for half the price. Turns out it was the same company the cruise ships uses... yay for a good deal!
Our entertaning tour guides took us for a boat ride through the Nassau pointing out the interesting points and celebrity homes.

We got off the boat and had 2 hours to snorkel. The water was so clear and the fish were beautiful. The highlight was seeing an eel!

Yes, we are "snorkel kissing!"


On the way back to the ship, we were able to catch a beautiful sunset.

After snorkeling, we stopped for a few photo ops and then headed back to the ship!




We could not have asked for a better day in Nassau. The weather was perfect and the snorkeling trip was a wonderful experience. So much fun!
