Great Stirrup Cay

Great Stirrup Cay is a small island that is part of the Berry Islands in the Bahamas. Norwegian Cruise Line purchased the island from the Belcher Oil Company in 1977 and developed it into a private island for their cruise ship passengers. The northern part of the island has a sandy beach surrounded by rocks with snorkeling areas. The southern part features a helicopter airfield (with a sign reading "Great Stirrup Cay International Airport"), a large area without vegetation, and numerous concrete blocks. These are all remnants of a previous U.S. military installation and satellite tracking station. The island's lighthouse was originally constructed in 1863 by the Imperial Lighthouse Service.

Great Stirrup Cay is adjacent to Little Stirrup Cay, Royal Caribbean Cruises' private island.

A Taste of Greece-Air Canada Vacations!

Danny provided excellent guidance and quick responses to our questions. We had an amazing time in Greece - very well organized, transfers were on time and well coordinated. We had a few wonderful surprises - first class ferry ticket from Athens to Naxos and all inclusive plan in Crete hotel. In Paros - Parosland hotel provided unique quality service. Customer service rep in Athens, Swetlana - was very helpful and attentive to ourneeds. Big thanks to Danny - can’t wait...
