Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas Port Reviews

Gorgeous! They have done a fantastic job. So many beautiful spots, so you can find your perfect place. They have made lots of lagoons to explore. It’s still a work in progress, but what they have now is incredible, and can’t wait to see what they’ll have done next time. Favorite private island we’ve ever been to. MSC should be very proud.

The weather dropped to much cooler temps. Jellyfish and sharks took over the lagoon forcing people out of the water. MSC & Ocean Cay souvenirs available and at fair prices. Convenient food trucks. Bars aren't fully stocked but your easy drink package works. The light show was very cool but could be longer in duration. Took great photos and videos at sunset.

Thank you MSC for turning this industrial mining island into the most beautiful Marine Reserve in the Bahamas . The lighthouse, beach and water are amazing.

Fantastic place, all you need to relax and beach, lagoon is the best place with plenty of chair and across from the buffet. There’s a trolley that bring you all over if you desire, food at the buffet is excellent with table.

I LOVE this place. This place is so relaxing,I just love spending all day in the water. Just a heads up South Beach is only open until 5 pm and the buffet at south beach is only open until 2pm but there are food trucks also. Lighthouse Beach is open until 7pm

I would like to skip Nassau and do 2 days at Ocean Cay.

I have been to a couple of private islands so far, and the new Ocean Cay reserve is my new favorite! The island is very beautiful and clean. I am not a huge beach person, as I typically get bored on them quite quickly, but I really enjoyed my time on the island. It’s fairly small so it’s easy to see everything. The buffet lunch had a nice selection to choose from, but it got really crowded fast, so I recommend grabbing your lunch early. I enjoyed being able to stay on the island until late, and I do recommend the Junkanoo parade in the evening! There is also a lighthouse show that I didnt get the chance to see which I’d like to do next time I’m in this port. The island is still brand new, so more activity may be added in the near future.

MSC Ocean Cay private island is beautiful and great for a beach day but it doesn't have a pool or lazy river. The Lighthouse is beautiful and a great place for pictures. At night the Lighthouse show, it's not really a show, it was like 5 minutes of lights and bad sound. In my opinion MSC is saving money because they are not offering a real show at the theater that night. I'm Ok with MSC having the Lighthouse lights and music at night after a real show at the theater. MSC needs to learn from Las Vegas Fremont Street Experience and the Bellagio Fountains.

Very nice day!!, sunshine!! Splendide the Day at the beach, atelier at the buffet, went shopping at the Ocean Cay store for souvenirs, loved the colorfull houses and stores! Took a drink by the Lighthouse! The best Day! Saw the Lighthouse show, amazing!

The island is gorgeous, so much space and lots of chairs at the various beaches. The food was good however the wait in line was about 30 mins, and the soda fountain and beer fountain were both not working. However they did a great job of compensating by having staff there filling cups as quickly as possible.
