Princess Cays Cruise Port Guide

Why this guide exists

A private peninsula on Eleuthera, planned the smart way

Princess Cays sits on a private peninsula on Eleuthera, and a new pier completed in 2024 replaced the old tender system with direct dockside access, changing how a port day here should be planned. The island is known for a long stretch of white sand beach, calm snorkeling water, and Blue Cove, a beach area geared toward teens and families.

The Smarty Ports Princess Cays guide is a self-guided plan timed to your ship's actual arrival and all-aboard time, covering what the new pier changes about getting ashore, where to find the best stretch of beach, and whether the cabana upgrades are worth it. For current, specific pricing and booking links, the guide links you straight to the vetted recommendations on smartyports.com.
