From a previous thread regarding the same topic, I responded with the following:
I'm in the minority camp that says you should get off the ship at least for a few hours if you have never been to Nassau. Fort Fincastle and Queen's Staircase are just about a mile walk from the pier, and quite nice to visit. It's not a huge fort, but the views are very pretty. The ladies can shop on the return walk to the ship. Here are a few pics from our recent stop there...
Enjoy!
This will be our 3rd trip to Nassau and we had planned to stay on the ship but this looks really neat!!! We have only did the market and things close to the port. And we did a carriage tour as well. Is that a safe walk to Queen's Staircase and the fort? Our last trip to Nassau we were a bit worried about safety.
