For your cruise stop in Freeport, Bahamas treat yourself to a beach day with a day pass to Paradise Cove. Enjoy a day of sun, sand, and surf.

You'll meet your transportation outside your Freeport cruise terminal and be driven to the beach club to start your day. Paradise Cove Beach Club offers some of the best snorkeling available on the island. The white powder sandy beach is a great place to watch the ever-changing blues of the ocean. You can catch some sun or hang out under a palm tree. Try some delicious food and drink at the beachside bar and grill at great prices. There is a large sandy beach at this oceanfront club with more rustic charm than a fancy party atmosphere.

You have the option to choose from 5 different packages to enjoy your day at Paradise Cove. There is the Basic Day Pass, the All-Inclusive with Sports Day Pass, and the Day Pass with Kayak, Snorkel, or Stand-Up Paddleboard package. See details of each option below.

What makes the water team with marine life is that just off the beach is both a natural coral reef and an artificial reef established in 2014. The artificial reef is a series of continuous reef balls that act as a breakwater to help restore the shoreline and as a base for a living reef. It's the largest in the Bahamas and attracts teachers with their classes, scientists who want to study reefs, and tourists coming to enjoy great diving and snorkeling. The reef hosts hundreds of species of fish including angelfish, sea turtles, damselfish, parrotfish, squirrelfish, hogfish, grouper, and snapper plus a variety of coral and algae.

At the beach club, you can purchase a special lunch option for $9.50 USD per person which includes a choice of a burger, hot dog, chicken burger, or veggie burger with 1 snack and 1 soft drink or bottled water. The ala carte restaurant and bar are also available if you want to purchase other food and drinks. Try a locally brewed Bahamian beer and some freshly caught fish (available most days). Let the bartender mix you a local favorite called Gully Wash (gin or dark rum, sweetened condensed milk, coconut water, and a dash of bitters) or one of their classic coconut-based cocktails.

You decide how much time you want to spend at Paradise Cove. The Paradise Cove shuttle returns to Freeport at 12:30 PM, 02:30 PM, and 04:30 PM. Guests need to calculate which time fits their cruise ship departure time the best.
