Nassau Cruise Port (NCP) reported setting a new one day record welcoming 28,554 passengers on February 27, 2023. 

The expanded cruise port saw six ships alongside at the same time including Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas and Harmony of the Seas, Carnival’s Mardi Gras,  the Celebrity Reflection, Celebrity Beyond and the MSC Meraviglia.

The redesigned and expanded Global Ports Holding-led Nassau Cruise Port will celebrate its grand opening in May 2023 with an array of events over the weekend featuring local and international entertainment.

 “We are extremely pleased to report another record-setting passenger day here at Nassau Cruise Port. The expanded berths are certainly delivering on the sizeable investment that we have made in them, creating the additional capacity required to achieve this extraordinary record today,” the port said in a statement.

“Incredibly, this figure does not include the crew count, which adds an additional 10,302 people to our total visitor count. That’s thousands of visitors exploring downtown Nassau and learning about our island and culture through our restaurants, shore excursions, taxi rides, and tours, while making wonderful memories of their time in The Bahamas.”
