Dolphin Encounters Limited is pleased to announce the ultimate private island experience with the opening of the company’s new ‘Blue Lagoon Beach Day.’
One of The Bahamas’ foremost tourist attractions, Dolphin Encounters on Blue Lagoon Island, has recently extended their Bahamas vacation excursion offerings and world-class service for visitors to experience the best of Bahamian beaches and hospitality with Beach Day packages. Renowned for its extraordinary beauty, Blue Lagoon Island is a private tropical paradise that offers guests the opportunity to relax in tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of Nassau.
The new ‘Blue Lagoon Beach Day’ adventure is a one day Bahamas excursion vacation experience that begins with a scenic 20-minute cruise on a double-decker ferry through Nassau’s historic harbour, passing some of the most luxurious homes in the Bahamas over to this spectacular private island. Surrounded by turquoise waters on all sides and covered with thousands of native coconut trees, lush landscaping and a natural lagoon, Blue Lagoon Island is an extraordinary private island that offers guests a glimpse of an untouched paradise. In the seclusion of the calm lagoon, guests can lay back and soak up the sun in a comfortable beach lounge chair, swim in the crystal clear water, explore by kayak or water bike, or just relax in a large double hammock under the shade of swaying palms.
Included in the ‘Blue Lagoon Beach Day’ Bahamas excursion vacation packages is a delicious lunch with the option of a 8 oz. Angus beef hamburger or cheese burger, all-white meat chicken burger, quarter pound all-beef hot dog or veggie burger with chips, fresh fruit, and a refreshing fruit punch in a relaxed and scenic island atmosphere; games of all varieties including volleyball, basketball, and hopscotch, unlimited use of big boss noodles, inner tubes, and unsinkable float mats along with access to the extraordinary all-natural marine mammal habitat at Dolphin Encounters to observe friendly dolphins and sea lions.
The ‘Blue Lagoon Beach Day’ Bahamas excursion vacation packages include the choice to shop for their favorite souvenirs at the lagoon gift shop and enjoy the sounds of local music. Blue Lagoon Island beach also features the Lagoon Beach Bar serving a variety of tropical beverages, soft drinks, Bahamian and imported beers, frozen daiquiris, and other specialty drinks. Guests can also rent snorkel gear for a snorkeling adventure in the lagoon; ride around in the island’s clear bottom kayaks, super-sized aqua bikes or paddle boats. Children also have access to buckets and shovels for play in the beach sand.
Exploring the spectacular natural setting is also encouraged and guests are invited to take advantage of the numerous fun-filled eco-activities offered on Blue Lagoon Island. The nature tour ‘Blue Lagoon Tower Discovery Nature Tour’ allows guests to experience the intrigue of the flora, fauna and marine geology found on Blue Lagoon Island. This fun natural history tour includes exploring the beaches and natural vegetation, and learning about the unique history of The Bahamas. The highlight of the trip is a short climb to the top of the famous tower at the lagoon entrance which boasts breathtaking views. Visitors are also free to wander over to world-famous Dolphin Encounters to observe amazing dolphins and sea lions (including the stars of the movies Flipper and Andre) in their spectacular natural ocean habitat. While at Dolphin Encounters, Blue Lagoon Beach Day guests also have the opportunity to take a delightful photo of a special kiss from an Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin and/or California Sea Lion.
For kids, the ‘Ocean Safari’ Tour is their passport to explore the sea! Filled with marine activities and games, this program encourages little ones to learn about some of the incredible animals that live in the ocean.

Blue Lagoon Island, also known by its official name Salt Cay, has been an interesting part of The Bahamas’ history for centuries and is one of the most well-known of Nassau’s natural attractions. Previously the stomping grounds of pirates who culled salt in the lagoon, the island has also been the vacation paradise for royalty, political figures, famous authors, and luminaries of screen, stage, music and sports throughout history. Now everyone can explore, relax and enjoy this beautiful island that has remained virtually untouched maintaining its lush natural beauty.
