Great Stirrup Cay with NCL

Big changes are coming to Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island, Great Stirrup Cay. Launching in winter 2025, guests can expect stylish arrivals, all part of an elevated island experience.

Great Stirrup Cay has always been one of the highlights of an NCL cruise, and it’s about to get even better. Norwegian Cruise Line is reimagining their private island in the Bahamas with exciting new experiences launching in winter 2025, designed to make your beach day even more unforgettable.

Get ready to dive into a brand-new, resort-style 28,000-square-foot heated pool, designed for pure relaxation under the Bahamian sun. You’ll also enjoy a smoother arrival thanks to a new state-of-the-art pier and arrivals area, making it easier than ever to step into paradise the moment you disembark. And with a new island tram, you’ll be able to explore more of the island with comfort and ease.

This is more than just an upgrade. It’s a bold refresh of what a private island experience can be, more thoughtful, more elevated, and more connected to the way travellers like you want to unwind. And this is only the beginning. Even more enhancements are on the horizon, and Great Stirrup Cay is set to become an even bigger standout in the Caribbean.

If you’ve been dreaming about your next warm-weather getaway, this is the kind of destination you’ll want on your radar.
