This change comes with rising COVID-19 cases in both Florida and the Bahamas. The Bahamas recently implemented a policy requiring all eligible cruise passengers to be vaccinated, and Disney Cruise Line later updated their policy to also require vaccinations. The CDC recommends that those who are at high risk not sail.
honestly, this is a good thing even without Covid. Nassau just isn’t that fun when you come off the ship and people start pestering you with tours. I would much prefer going to Castaway Cay twice.
