Top 10 Best Excursions in Nassau Bahamas
Without further ado, here are our picks for best excursions in Nassau Bahamas:
1.Get a bird’s eye view of the Exuma Cays
If traveling to the Exumas on Nassau port excursions, the time you save by flying is just a bonus. The real fun is what astronauts call the most beautiful view from above; the Bahamas’ Out Islands from above.
As you fly to the Exuma Cays, you can enjoy the same views as the astronauts from your window and on board a luxury private plane. Live a life outside your own and soak it in while you are on holiday!
2. Go Underwater Plane Wreck Spotting in the Exumas
With an interesting drug running history across the Bahamas Islands from the 1970’s, there are many underwater plane wrecks to discover. The Bahamas shallow and clear waters make it the perfect place to go finding these amazing underwater plane wrecks.

3. Play with the turtles at Farmer’s Cay
Farmer’s Cay is another of the Nassau Bahamas cruise excursions not to be missed. Have you ever dreamed of diving with sea turtles and seeing them so elegantly glide through the ocean? Farmer’s Cay gives you one of the best chances to see this scene in the world.
4. Spot the Rock Iguanas
Northern rock iguanas are not as densely populated anywhere else in the world as in the Bahamas. Though, today there are less than 5,000 of them on the planet, making it an endangered species.
One of the most underrated Nassau Bahamas shore excursions is a trip to spot these rare reptiles. Located only on the islands of Andros, Exuma, and most predominantly Bitter Guana Cay, you have to take the chance to see this dying breed before it is too late.
