Great Stirrup Cay is Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island. The ships anchor offshore and passengers are tendered over to the island. There are plenty of activities to enjoy, including parasailing (that’s me in the photo above!), snorkelling, jet skis, zip lines, kayaks and lots more. There is a bbq lunch to enjoy as well as bar service. You can pay for everything with your NCL key card, aside from the local’s souvenirs shops which take cash in US dollars. There are also cabanas for rent.
The island recently reopened on November 20th, 2016, after being delayed due to Hurricane Matthew.
I really enjoyed this day on the island and would definitely recommend an itinerary with this stop!
