Frequently Asked Questions
In Nassau, across the channel. Paradise Island is then reached three ways: the Royal Beach Club water shuttles from the terminal, a taxi over the bridges in about ten minutes, or a local water taxi from the Nassau waterfront.
Directly opposite Nassau, linked to the capital by two bridges. From the deck of a ship berthed in Nassau it fills the view, with the salmon-pink silhouette of Atlantis.
A seven-hectare property opened in December 2025 at the island's western tip, split into three moods: a family area, a party zone around what is billed as the world's largest swim-up bar, and a quiet corner for those escaping the volume. Three pools, two developed beaches, food and drinks included depending on the pass chosen.
Yes. Access is limited to Royal Caribbean passengers holding a reservation, and places go quickly in high season. Private cabanas, available at extra cost, go even faster: groups and families do well to book as soon as sales open.
The resort that redrew the island in the 1990s. Its towers frame Aquaventure, a sprawling water park whose slides pass through lagoons stocked with sharks, available with a day pass. The Dig, a walk through underground aquariums staged as the ruins of a sunken city, suits the less daring.
Yes. Cabbage Beach on the north coast is open to all: a ribbon of golden sand wide enough to absorb the crowds near the hotels and turn peaceful again toward the east. Marina Village, at the entrance to Atlantis, lines up yachts, galleries and Bahamian food counters with no ticket required.
A 14th-century French cloister, dismantled in Europe and rebuilt here stone by stone in the 1960s, at the top of the Bahamian version of the Versailles gardens. Few visitors know this fragment of the Middle Ages set before the channel, ten minutes from the noise of Aquaventure.
By taxi over the bridges, about ten minutes; by water taxi from the waterfront; or by Royal Beach Club water shuttle for its guests. Bring US dollars and agree the fare before getting in: the price is negotiated.
The Bahamian dollar, at par with the US dollar, and English. Keep small US bills for taxis and water taxis.
Very much so. Aquaventure and The Dig are designed for children, as is the family area at the Royal Beach Club, and Cabbage Beach remains free to use. Three scenarios are available depending on budget and mood.
