mabones Posted April 11, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Will be on Epic-Eastern Caribbean next April 2013, and have been to St. Thomas & St. Marteen several times. I'm looking for some new ideas for Excursions. Does anyone have any ideas for Nassau? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmdr Cody Posted April 11, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It sort of helps if we knew which ones you've done so we suggest new one for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for some new ideas for Excursions. Does anyone have any ideas for Nassau? We did para sailing in Nassau. That was pretty cool. In Great Stirrup Cay we did kayaking, found a giant starfish and hung out on the beach. We then got hooked on Kayaking and had to buy some! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabones Posted April 11, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Sorry about that! I'm looking for something out of the ordinary. We done city tours, snorkeling, beaches. Just want something different. Did I see that there are excursions from St. Thomas to Tortola? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warmer Climes Posted April 11, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 11, 2012 In Nassau we did off-road Segways and it was really fun. We did it with Bahamas Segway and Beach Experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want something different. Did I see that there are excursions from St. Thomas to Tortola? For St. Thomas, we booked a full-day sail on the "Simplicity" for our upcoming cruise on the Gem in January. Here's a link to their web site: http://www.simplicitycharters.com/ For St. Martin, we opted for the island tour with Bernard. Hope this helps.

aloisia Posted April 11, 2012 #7 Share Posted April 11, 2012 In Nassau we went to Blue Lagoon Island - Dolphin Encounter, nice small beach & fun boat ride to get there. Very good day. St. Martin - Bernard`s Island tour. Excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggcruiser Posted April 11, 2012 #8 Share Posted April 11, 2012 If you've never been to Atlantis, it is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare drumexpert510 Posted April 12, 2012 #9 Share Posted April 12, 2012 rent a scooter... its like $40 for the whole day... then drive over to Atlantis check it out at your own leisure, then head over to a restaurant, then over to the beach... what im trying to get at is you literally can do anything you want at your own pace. Its very convenient and fun. But watch out they drive on the left hand side of the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabones Posted April 12, 2012 Author #10 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Azappraiser: Did you do the 1/2 day Sail or the Full Day? Simplicity looks really fun. We will only be there from 8am-4pm. What is the Island Tour w/Bernard? I didn't see it listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelly11 Posted April 12, 2012 #11 Share Posted April 12, 2012 In Nassau we did the See & Sea, boat tour to a semi sub tour back to land for a bus tour of town. We enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashdog_1 Posted April 12, 2012 #12 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Sorry about that! I'm looking for something out of the ordinary. We done city tours, snorkeling, beaches. Just want something different. Did I see that there are excursions from St. Thomas to Tortola? No, it's from STT to St John. Although there used to be a hydrofoil from St Thomas harbor to Tortola and back, there was NO time to spend on Tortola since it was really just a "get your passport stamped" ride and back. if you've already seen St Thomas, St John is totally different and a nice change. We are doing the one that gives you a little time at Trunk Bay, and lets you take photos of several other beaches. I've heard good reviews of the champagne cruises if you are a snorkler, too. Take an Eastern Carib cruise that actually stops in Tortola, and St Thomas out of Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the Island Tour w/Bernard? I didn't see it listed. We haven't gone yet... but we booked the full day sail. If you contact them by email , Charlie Whittemore will get back to you; although it may take a day or two. Plus, DW & I are dog people, so sailing with Hinkley aboard sounded like fun. Sorry about Bernards, here's a link to his site. http://www.bernardstours.com/ Just so you know, there's music on his home page... but you can mute it if you like. Click on "Tour Itineraries" on the lower, left portion of the home page. The full day tour is $40pp. BTW, there were quite a few positive comments about his operation on the St. Martin board and on Tripit. He too will respond to an email within one or two days.

NeilD Posted April 12, 2012 #14 Share Posted April 12, 2012 We did 'America's Cup Regatta' in St. Martin. Would highly recommend it. What a thrill. They actually put you to work depending on your abilities. We got to sail on the actual 'Stars and Stripes', the 1987 America's Cup Champion. You will enjoy....
