Atlantis vs Blue Lagoon

[map70065]

I'm trying to choose between these two shore excursions in Nassau. Family of 13 ages 2-62. Any input would be appreciated. I'd like to see and/or swim with dolphins if possible.

Blue Lagoon - dolphin swim gets better reviews, and Atlantis much be too much for your youngest and oldest. Plus it's cheaper. The first time we went to Atlantis on an excursion, we left our 4, 4, and 6 year olds on the ship with the grandparents, and just brought our tweens. It's HUGE, and there are a lot of slides with height requirements.

I've done the dolphin encounters at both the Atlantis and Blue Lagoon. My whole family preferred Blue Lagoon. We did the deep water swim with the foot push. Blue Lagoon was more peaceful and the staff was definitely more friendly. There would be plenty to do on Blue Lagoon for all ages in your group. There are water slides at the beach, hammocks in the trees, and all the animals are there to see.
