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.

My first incredible trip to Europe....

Sam did a fantastic job with planning, recommendations, and bookings for our trip to Italy. He booked extra days before our tour, making it super easy to hook up with our tour when it started. With his connections, Sam was even able to find us a discount at that hotel. He was also available to help us resolve transportation issues that arose at the end of our trip. I highly recommend Sam for any of your travel plans!
