Cabbage Beach

[aggie76]

I keep reading reviews about Cabbage Beach in Nassau. Anyone done this beach on your own, by taking a taxi over there? Is it easy to get a taxi back to the ship? I don't really care to buy an all day pass to Atlantis.

Done cabbage beach many times . Taxi will get you there .

But we usually just walk down and cross over to Atlantis to get a taxi.

I like to walk to burn off some of that boat food ;).

Plenty of taxis at cabbage beach though.

Went there on my last cruise to the bahamas nice beach had some great local drink deals like 20.00 all you can drink and had water sports if you wanted it was fun times and taxis are lined up all day to take you back to ship.....

We went there once.

 

The beach is pretty good. But no vendors out at all! Couldn't get a drink anywhere and I walked up and down the beach awhile looking.

 

There are plenty of cabs to take you back, but we had to wait out in the hot sun for 20-30 mins. The cabs were lined up but didn't want to take just two people. Someone finally took pity on us and gave us a ride.

 

I asked the cabbie about lack of services and he said since there was only one ship in port, the people don't feel it's worth their time.

 

This is why I now stay on the ship in Nassau. I really enjoy it a whole lot more!

We took a water taxi over to Paradise Island (you can get some great shots of the ships at dock this way) and it is cheap ($6 RT). Then we walked to Cabbage Beach from there (be warned though, it's about half a mile or so from the water taxi dock). Here are some pics taken last time we were there:

Just got back on Fri. Went to Cabbage beach. Our son did parasailing ($60). $4 each way pp by taxi. There were 4 ships in that day so no problem getting a taxi. Walked over to Atlantis just to walk around afterwards. Beautiful. Came out of Cabbage beach took a right and walked about 3 minutes and into "a part" of Atlantis and just kept following casino signs but were inside (ac) and used the bathrooms to change. Got a taxi when we got outside no problem.
