Home of Dolphin Encounters - Set on a private island, we recommend the Blue Lagoon All inclusive Beach Day
http://www.bahamasbluelagoon.com/beach-day.php
You get a short boat ride, access to the inflatable waterpark, lunch and can see the dolphins even if you don't actually reserve and interaction. Go on the earliest boat to get a great spot (hammock!) on the edge of the lagoon. Kayaks and snorkeling gear available for a fee.
Great for windy days as the lagoon keeps water very calm and little kid friendly.

Marina Village at Atlantis has a nice variety of shops, restaurants and live music in the evenings.
After the slides close it is often possible to walk through the aquariums without paying. Start with taking the elevator down into the Dig.

Highly recommend the whole snapper, fried! Known for fresh seafood, choose your just caught red snapper and tell them how you'd like it cooked. Call ahead to reserve a table right on the balcony railing, though all tables have great view of the marina and harbour. Fruity rum based tropical drinks, like Bahama Mammas are a must here.

The view of the harbour is remarkable! You will need a reservation if going for dinner so book ahead. They seem to have a bit of everything on the menu but somehow they pull it off. Our favorite dishes are all the appetizers lol, steaks, Asian dishes and the lasagna rolls. Pizzas are decent, by Nassau standards at least. Cocktails are expensive but good. It is worth a visit for sure.

World famous Cabbage Beach is just a short walk from our condo! The closest of two beach access paths is located on Casino Drive, between the Atlantis Beach Tower and the Riu Hotel. The other access path is worth the extra 10 minutes walk, further east next to the Paradise Island Beach Club and far from the big hotels.
