Great Stirrup Cay, Private cruise island in Berry Islands, Bahamas.
Great Stirrup Cay extends two miles in length and half a mile in width, featuring white sand beaches and several dining establishments across its 268 acres.
The island transformed into the first private cruise port after Norwegian Cruise Line acquired it from Belcher Oil Company in 1986, following a lease period that began in 1977.
The straw market on the island provides opportunities for visitors to purchase traditional Bahamian crafts and souvenirs using United States dollars.
Cruise passengers reach the island via tender boats that operate continuously throughout the day, requiring their room card and photo identification for security purposes.
The underwater sculpture garden at Bertram's Cove presents concrete statues of marine creatures for snorkelers to discover while exploring the waters.
