One of the best beaches in the Bahamas can be found at Blue Lagoon Island, also known by its official name Salt Cay. Frequently called the “real” Bahamas, Blue Lagoon has been an interesting part of The Bahamas’ history and is one of the most well known of Nassau’s natural attractions and tours. Located just three miles from Nassau, it is now the home of the dolphins and sea lions of Dolphin Encounters and is owned by a local family. This incredibly beautiful island has had a fascinating past and continues to be the number one attraction in Nassau/Paradise Island for activities with families and is wonderfully enlightening and educational excursion suited for children and adults alike.

Blue Lagoon Island offers visitors everything one dreams of when picturing a private tropical island – breathtakingly clear turquoise waters including a hidden lagoon, hundreds of native coconut palm trees, pristine white sandy beaches, beautiful natural vegetation, tropical birds, coral reefs, dolphins and sea lions in their natural habitat. Although Blue Lagoon Island is in very close proximity to Nassau and Paradise Island, it is completely secluded allowing all who visit a true opportunity to relax in a tranquil natural environment right on the beach in the Bahamas. The island has remained virtually untouched maintaining its lush natural beauty.

Now, with one simple call, you can spend the entire day at one of the best Bahamian vacation spots – Blue Lagoon Island. Whether you choose to just enjoy the beach, play with dolphins and sea lions or do both – this is an exciting and educational excursion that allows you to experience the real Bahamas on a secluded, pristine beach just minutes from Nassau.
