I equate Nassau to be the "armpit" of the Bahamas. If I was going there, I wouldn't even leave the ship. Back in the 1970's it was a nice port but the last time we were there we couldn't get back to the ship quick enough. I think where I would have a problem is with paying for Key West and getting Nassau. That is like paying for 5-star experience and getting a 1-star substitute. Just think for a minute that if the tendering couldn't happen in HMC or Grand Cayman, almost your entire cruise would be onboard a ship. Might not be all that bad if you had the HIA beverage package.
