Nassau Cruise Port in the Bahamas is one of the most modern cruise terminals in the Caribbean and, following an extensive modernization, welcomes travelers with direct access to the colorful capital. Prince George Wharf is centrally located in downtown Nassau and offers space for up to six ships simultaneously.
Airplane
Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) serves as the central hub and is located approximately 16 kilometers west of the port. Guests from the DACH region typically reach the Bahamas via connecting flights through Miami, Atlanta, or London and reach their ship quickly after landing.
Transfer & Taxi
From the airport, you can reach the cruise terminal comfortably by licensed taxis or pre-booked private shuttle services. The travel time to Prince George Wharf is approximately 25 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic; additionally, many cruise lines offer organized bus transfers for a smooth arrival directly at the terminal.
