Short Ocean Escape – Nassau, Great Stirrup Cay & Miami

About this cruise

3 nights is all it takes to completely reset. This cruise from Miami on April 14, 2028 visits Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay and you'll feel it from day one. There's a new port every day, so you'll do your relaxing on board in the evenings rather than during dedicated sea days. The Bahamas are close enough for a quick trip and warm enough that it always feels worth it. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Norwegian Viva (2023) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Miami has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. An April departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 3-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
