NCL holder forhåndsvisning av nye Great Tides Waterpark på Great Stirrup Cay

MIAMI (Sept. 2, 2026) – Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) holdt 1. september en eksklusiv forhåndsvisning av Great Tides Waterpark på Great Stirrup Cay, selskapets 1092 mål store private øy i The Bahamas. Arrangementet samlet myndighetsrepresentanter, reisepartnere, media, mer enn 100 innholdsprodusenter og andre gjester, og ga et første innblikk i vannparkens attraksjoner, nye mat- og drikketilbud og partneraktiviteter før den offisielle åpningen 4. september 2026 når Norwegian Luna™ anløper øya.

I forbindelse med den høytidelige åpningen var det en seremoniell båndklipping hvor følgende holdt taler: John Chidsey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.; Marc Kazlauskas, President of Norwegian Cruise Line; Herschel Walker, United States Ambassador to the Commonwealth of The Bahamas og Randy Rolle Member of Parliament of Bimini and the Berry Islands.

Etter seremonien fikk inviterte, blant andre NHL-stjernen Taylor Hall fra Carolina Hurricanes og skuespilleren og podkasteren Josh Peck, utforske den 24 mål store Great Tides Waterpark og prøve flere av vannparkens signatur- og bransje-første attraksjoner.

Om vannparken og arrangementet:

  • Partneraktiviteter med spesialdrinker, smaksprøver, profilgaver og foto-opptredener fra Aperol®, Casamigos™, Coca-Cola® og Hampton Water®.
  • Mattilbud fra tre nye food trucks: Low Tide Smoke (barbecue), Catch of the Cay (sjømat) og Tidal Treats (iskrem og soft serve).
  • En livlig Junkanoo-opptreden som feiret bahamansk kultur, musikk og ånd under dagen.

I Marc Kazlauskas’ uttalelse fra arrangementet sa han:

“Great Tides Waterpark represents an exciting new chapter for Great Stirrup Cay and a defining moment for Norwegian Cruise Line. With our official grand opening just days away on Sept. 4, this event offered a preview of the adventure, flexibility and family fun that awaits our guests. From the 170-foot Tidal Tower and first-of-its-kind slides to the immersive Wandering River, industry-first cliff jumps and interactive splash zones, every element has been thoughtfully designed to create an unforgettable island day for guests of all ages. Combined with the incredible experiences across Great Stirrup Cay, the destination offers families the freedom to enjoy the ultimate vacation day, where no one has to compromise and everyone gets the adventure or relaxation they want.”

På Great Tides Waterpark er flere unike opplevelser spredd ut over fire hovedområder:

  • Tidal Tower: ikonisk midtpunkt på 51 meter, med åtte spennende sklier, inkludert Tropic Spiral – the first Nautilus-sklien i verden med store spiraler som snurrer badegjester i spennende retninger; samt Breakwater Blasters, duelleringsskliene som skyver oppblåsbare ringer oppover og gjennom bratte dropp og vridninger med høytrykkvannjets.
  • Cliffside Cove: inkluderer Cliffside Leap, karibiens høyste klippehopp, på 3 og 4,5 meter; The Great Slide, en familiesklie hvor fire gjester kan gli sammen; og The Fearless Falls som slipper ryttere fra 150 cm over vannet.
  • Wandering River: en dynamisk elv (lazy river) over 243 meter lang med oppslukende tunnel og swim-up bar, Floataway Bar, langs elven.
  • Splash Cay: over 800 kvadratmeter familieunderholdning med en overdimensjonert tipping bucket som holder 1100 liter vann, åtte mini-sklier og interaktive vannfunksjoner.

Vannet og de nye fasilitetene er del av NCLs større investering i Great Stirrup Cay, som tilbyr en rekke andre fasiliteter: Great Life Lagoon med to swim-up bars og private cabanas, Splash Harbor med splash pad, Vibe Shore Club for voksne, Silver Cove med premium villaer og Silver Cove Spa. Øya byr også på hvite sandstrender, snorkling- og paddle board-utleie samt mulighet for zipline fra Flighthouse.
