Stuart Cove's Snorkel Nassau - Timing for Fantasy Departure?

[JAKcruiser]

We will be in Nassau on the Carnival Fantasy next Friday from 10am to 7pm. We're interested in the afternoon snorkel trip with Stuart Cove's but a little nervous with the timing of the return to the ship. Their first bus back to the ship is due to return to the port at 5:50pm and the last bus at 6:35pm. Has anyone done this trip and found their timing pretty accurate? When I spoke to them they assured me that we "should" be back on time without a problem. I didn't feel too assured though.

 

We're interested in others' experiences. The other option is Barefoot Sailing Cruise but it doesn't sound like the snorkeling is as good.

 

Thanks for your help.

When we did this excursion we were there overnight...

 

Their timing was good, and I remember being back in time for a quick meal at the buffet and then heading out to Senor Frogs...

 

The excursion is excellent...

 

But it's up to you on how close you want to push it with the ship departure. The site is not close to the pier...

Thanks for your response, Tankersbabe. It sounds like its a great tour. I guess we'll have to decide if we feel comfortable enough with the timing.

I don't know about the timing but Stuart's Cove is wonderful. We had a blast and it was an amazing experience. If you can work it out with the timing DON'T MISS IT!
