Norwegian Cruise Line<\/span><\/a><\/span> is making an even bigger splash in The Bahamas with <\/span>Great Tides Waterpark, an upcoming addition to its private island, Great Stirrup Cay! Spanning nearly six acres, the new waterpark packs in 19 waterslides, cliff jumps, a not-so-lazy river, a dedicated kids\u2019 splash zone, bars, dining, cabanas, and plenty of ways to cool off under the Caribbean sun.<\/span><\/p>

The official grand opening celebration is scheduled for <\/span>September 4, 2026<\/b>, during Norwegian Luna\u2019s seven-day Caribbean sailing. If Great Stirrup Cay is on your upcoming NCL itinerary, here\u2019s everything you need to know before diving into Great Tides Waterpark.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Great Tides Waterpark is Norwegian Cruise Line\u2019s new waterpark experience at <\/span>Great Stirrup Cay, NCL\u2019s 270-acre private island in The Bahamas. The nearly six-acre park features four main areas: <\/span>Tidal Tower, Cliffside Cove, Wandering River, and Splash Cay<\/b>. Altogether, there are 19 waterslides, including 11 main attractions and eight kid-friendly slides.<\/span><\/p>

Great Tides is just one part of a larger transformation happening at Great Stirrup Cay. NCL has also opened a new two-berth pier, making it easier for guests to step off the ship and get straight to their island day without tendering ashore!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

No. While admission to <\/span>Great Stirrup Cay itself is complimentary for NCL guests, Great Tides Waterpark is an upgraded experience that requires a separate day pass. Pricing varies depending on your sailing and availability, so booked guests will need to log into their MyNCL account to see the current price for their cruise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Children ages 0\u20133 receive complimentary admission. Children 13 and younger must enter with a ticketed guest who is at least 18 years old. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Thrill seekers will probably want to make <\/span>Tidal Tower their first stop. It\u2019s home to several of the park\u2019s biggest slides, including body slides, mat racers, tube rides, and one of the tallest waterslides in the Caribbean. <\/span><\/p>\n

One of its signature attractions is <\/span>Breakwater Blasters. According to NCL, this will be the Caribbean\u2019s first dueling Master Blaster slides, propelling inner tubes uphill with high-pressure water jets before sending riders through drops and twists.<\/p>

Tidal Tower also includes <\/span>Whitewater Dash, <\/span>Rapid Mat Racers, <\/span>Tropic Storm, and <\/span>Tropic Spiral. Riders must be at least 42 inches tall for Tidal Tower\u2019s slides.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

If waterslides aren\u2019t enough of an adrenaline rush, head to <\/span>Cliffside Cove.<\/span><\/p>

According to NCL, Cliffside Cove will feature the cruise industry\u2019s only cliff-jump attraction, with jumps ranging from 10 to 15 feet.\u00a0There\u2019s also <\/span>Fearless Falls, a shotgun-style body racer, and <\/span>The Great Slide, a four-person family body slide. <\/span>Cliffside Cove attractions have a minimum rider height of 48 inches.<\/span><\/p>

And if watching everyone else leap from a cliff sounds more appealing than doing it yourself, there\u2019s a solution for that too: <\/span>Grotto Bar sits right in Cliffside Cove with views of the action.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Forget the traditional lazy river. Great Tides has the <\/span>Wandering River, an 800-plus-foot-long attraction designed with a little more adventure in mind.<\/span><\/p>

The route includes an immersive multimedia tunnel, an attached pool, and surprises along the way. There\u2019s even a swim-up <\/span>Floataway Bar, so adults can grab a drink without completely abandoning their inner tube.<\/span><\/p>

The Wandering River is also one of the waterpark\u2019s more accessibility-friendly attractions, with NCL noting that it can be accessed by pool lift. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Low Tide Smoke is the barbecue stop, with menu items including BBQ pork riblets, pork nachos, chicken wings, and crispy Buffalo cauliflower.<\/span><\/p>

Seafood fans can head to <\/span>Catch of the Cay for options such as crispy shrimp rolls, fried shrimp baskets, and chilled seafood rolls served with seasoned waffle fries.<\/span><\/p>

Then there\u2019s <\/span>Tidal Treats for dessert. Expect warm-weather indulgences like sundaes served in bubble-waffle bowls and fish-shaped waffle cones topped with soft serve and your choice of flavored swirls.<\/span><\/p>

Grotto Bar is tucked beneath The Great Slide in Cliffside Cove, giving you a front-row seat to watch brave cruisers take on the nearby cliff jumps.<\/span><\/p>

Floataway Bar is located in the pool connected to the Wandering River, so you can float over for a drink without leaving the waterpark action behind. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Water shoes aren\u2019t required, and keep in mind that some attractions restrict loose items such as phones, footwear, hats, and sunglasses while riding. Rules are posted at individual slide entrances.<\/span><\/p>

Pro tip:<\/b> Take advantage of the complimentary lockers. Nobody wants to spend their Wandering River ride wondering whether their phone is still sitting on a lounge chair.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Once you\u2019ve booked an NCL cruise that visits Great Stirrup Cay, you can reserve your Great Tides Waterpark day pass through your <\/span>MyNCL account, subject to availability.<\/span><\/p>

NCL recommends booking before your cruise since passes may be limited onboard. Advance reservations can be made up to two days before sailing. If you wait until you\u2019re onboard, you can check with the Shore Excursion Desk to see if any passes remain.<\/span><\/p>

Tickets are available for sailings visiting Great Stirrup Cay beginning with the September 4, 2026 call during Norwegian Luna\u2019s Caribbean itinerary and for qualifying visits thereafter.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

That depends on how you want to spend your day at Great Stirrup Cay.<\/span><\/p>

Great Tides may be worth the upgrade for families and cruisers who want waterslides, cliff jumps, kids\u2019 attractions, and more active ways to spend the day. However, you don\u2019t need a waterpark ticket to enjoy Great Stirrup Cay. Island admission remains complimentary, so guests who prefer a beach day can skip the upgrade.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
