Great Stirrup Cay

Great Stirrup Cay is a small island that is part of the Berry Islands in the Bahamas. Norwegian Cruise Line purchased the island from the Belcher Oil Company in 1977 and developed it into a private island for their cruise ship passengers. The northern part of the island has a sandy beach surrounded by rocks with snorkeling areas. The southern part features a helicopter airfield (with a sign reading "Great Stirrup Cay International Airport"), a large area without vegetation, and numerous concrete blocks. These are all remnants of a previous U.S. military installation and satellite tracking station. The island's lighthouse was originally constructed in 1863 by the Imperial Lighthouse Service.

Great Stirrup Cay is adjacent to Little Stirrup Cay, Royal Caribbean Cruises' private island.

Family Vacation at Sensatori Resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Repbulic

Sarah has been such a help planning a couple of my trips including Italy, and most recently a family vacation to Punta Cana. She helped us find exactly what we were looking for, and assisted us along the way. She is very friendly and knowledgable . Should she not know the answer she will source it out and find it for you! Thank you and look forward to booking our next trip with Barefoot Travel.
