Key West

Saturday, January 13, 2024

Sunny weather, friendly people, and generous drinks make Key West an ideal port stop! This tropical paradise has something for everyone. Known as the Southernmost Point, Key West is home to the only living coral barrier reef in the continental U.S. It is most notable for its laid back attitude and beautiful sunsets. Don't miss Duval Street, fresh seafood, margaritas, and water excursions. And be sure to treat yourself to the official dessert of the island city, key lime pie!

Shore Excursions in Key West

Please note: Shore excursions will not be available until 4-6 weeks prior to sailing. You will be able to book an excursion once you have received your NCL reservation number.

Great Stirrup Cay

Sunday, January 14, 2024

It’s our own private island in the Bahamas where only cruisers are allowed! With its white sand beaches stretching for miles and clear blue waters it’s as awesome as it sounds. Grab a snorkel, hang a hammock, or enjoy a beachside barbeque while you soak in the rays.

Bonus! Guests who purchase a beverage package will be able to use it for all-inclusive drinks on Great Stirrup Cay, too!
