Short Ocean Escape – Great Stirrup Cay, Nassau & Miami

About this cruise

4 nights, 2 ports, one very easy decision. This one heads out of Miami on May 15, 2028 and visits Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau. With 2 port days and 1 at sea, there's room for each stop to breathe. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Norwegian Aqua (2025) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. 4 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
