Have you ever dreamed of swimming with dolphins, sliding past sharks, or exploring a lost underwater empire—all in one day? That’s exactly what we can do at Atlantis Paradise Island, located right off the coast of Nassau in the Bahamas.

More than just a luxury resort, Atlantis is an all-in-one adventure playground packed with marine life, white sand beaches, world-class pools, and jaw-dropping attractions.

How to Get There: Easy Access from Nassau

Paradise Island is connected to Nassau by two bridges, so it's super easy to reach. If we're flying in from abroad, we’ll land at Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS). From there, it's a 30-minute taxi or shuttle ride to Atlantis, costing around $35–$50. Some resorts even offer private transfers. Ferries and water taxis from downtown Nassau are also a scenic and affordable option—about $8 per person.

Tickets and Prices: What Should We Expect?

Atlantis isn’t just for hotel guests—we can also buy day passes. Here's what they cost (prices may vary slightly by season):

Aquaventure Day Pass (Water Park + Aquarium):

- Adults: $190 | Kids (4–12): $95

Dolphin Cay Experiences:

- Dolphin Shallow Water Interaction: $150+
