The fairy from downtown Nassau to Paradise Island only leaves when it’s full. There is no set times so you must be there extremely early or have to do what we did and take a $30 cab over the bridge to Paradise Island. The tour guide let us know we could ask for the boat to drop us back at downtown Nassau which was really good. Didn’t get any history of the island or anything just the ride over there. The water was a little rough that day so we couldn’t snorkel on the reef, but we did get to snorkel on the other side and saw a lot of fish and the stingray. It’s a little bummer that there wasn’t any real place to swim in the ocean just hanging out in a shallow roped of area. but it was a beautiful island. Very nice to lay in the lounge chair and just look at how pretty everything is. The food was good. And there is a bar to purchase drinks.

Was a bit overrated from what I saw online, the island gets packed as several boats come packed with people if your not one of the first boats in chairs will be limited. Most of the beach is rocks and if traveling with kids who want to play in the water this probably isn’t the experience you want as the 2 sandy beaches fill up quickly. Food was ok if you want hot dogs for your kids this is extra. Based on other day trips we have done they might cost a little bit more but it is worth the extra expense

I didn't know we had to bring our own towels so that would have been good info, and also the website says that you can play on the obstacle course as part of your experience but that wasn't the case. They were charging $10.

This was definitely as it says .. beach escape! It was relaxing. The island is beautiful. The lunch was delicious. I would recommend this to those who seek an even clearer more pristine waters and better views, cleaner beach compared to the main islands (Paradise and Nassau). Very family friendly and life guards are very attentive.

Everything in the Bahamas is expensive - I thought for the price of this one, it was well worth it. The staff on the island were friendly and helpful. It’s a cheap option for a day tour.

The activists available are limited and not as reflected in the website, no shower, the food was not good, no pedal boats or trampoline.

It was ok just felt like it should have had more. But hopefully it has improved now. I would do it again just because the host was fun and kept a great vibe.

The pictures are a catfish. The island was like a ship wreck had washed upon shore, the ferry left us so we had to pay for our own water travel. We got a meal ticket which definitely wasn’t worth it. The food was cold.

It was difficult to find the ferry after disembarking. The lunch was ok but not worth what the excursion cost. The beach was almost nonexistent and full of rocks under the water. We left early mostly because of the pouring rain also. Very disappointed!
