Cruise Itinerary - Norwegian Joy

3-Day Bahamian Cruise - Great Stirrup Cay & Nassau

Friday, January 15 - Monday, January 18, 2027 | Departing from Miami, Florida | Norwegian Joy

Nassau, Bahamas Route Map
Day 1: Miami, Florida Embark at 4:00 PM
Miami, Florida

Miami's amazing medley of cultures and flashy urban settings makes it a scene to be seen. Visit the trendy Art Deco district of South Beach, Calle Ocho in Little Havana, the super-upscale neighborhoods of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables and the unique ecosystem of the Everglades.

Day 2: Nassau, Bahamas 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Nassau, Bahamas

From the waterfront to the end of Bay Street, you'll find some of the best duty-free shopping and a charming mix of architecture, both old and new. But there's plenty to do besides shopping — swim with the dolphins, try your luck in a casino or snorkel with colorful fish.

Day 3: Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM Tender Port
Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas

Great Stirrup Cay is a tropical paradise, exclusive to NCL guests. Located in the beautiful Bahamas, here you’ll find white-sand beaches, delicious bites, private villas, Mandara Spa and world-class snorkeling.

Day 4: Miami, Florida Debark at 7:00 AM
Miami, Florida

Miami's amazing medley of cultures and flashy urban settings makes it a scene to be seen. Visit the trendy Art Deco district of South Beach, Calle Ocho in Little Havana, the super-upscale neighborhoods of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables and the unique ecosystem of the Everglades.

Three ports. Beaches. One unforgettable adventure.

This January, we're leaving the campground behind and taking the Jellystone Park family on a pic-a-nic like no other. Step aboard the Norwegian Joy and dive into crystal-clear waters in Nassau. Soak up private island paradise at Great Stirrup Cay — white-sand beaches, a sparkling lagoon, and cabanas that make even Yogi's ranger station look rustic. Then explore vibrant Miami, from the trendy Art Deco district of South Beach to the beautiful Coconut Grove. Hey, Boo Boo — this beats the park!
