Sandspit Sketch – Great Stirrup & Nassau

About this cruise

Book 4 days off from September 28, 2026 and this cruise from Miami will do the rest, taking you to Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau and back. The mix of 2 days ashore and 1 at sea means you won't feel like you need a holiday from your holiday. White sand, shallow turquoise flats, and easy island days. The Bahamas keep it simple. People come back from this cruise talking about Nassau: Colonial charm meets Caribbean colour. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 18 restaurants on Norwegian Getaway, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 4 nights. Miami itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. 2 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
