Our last private island is located on the southernmost tip of Eleuthera in The Bahamas–Disney’s Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point was created in partnership with Bahamian artists, historians and cultural ambassadors keeping the spirit of The Bahamas through the magic of Disney. The heart of the island is the open-air Goombay Cultural Center. Guests can learn about Bahamian traditions, be part of cultural demonstrations and activities, and enjoy a “RUSH! A Junkanoo Celebration” through music, dance and color.
The island features one white-sand beach divided into a family beach, and an adult-exclusive beach. Family Beach provides towels, lounge chairs and umbrellas. The adults-only Serenity Bay also offers an adult dining venue and private Serenity Bay Cabanas. There is one other beach area at Mabrika Cove which is accessible to guests who have rented a family cabana.
Dining venues include a BBQ lunch at either True-True BBQ or True-True BBQ Too and the adults-only Serenity Bay BBQ. Guests can find tropical treats at Sandsational Smoothies or Mangos & Go. Adults can enjoy one of the island’s four bars–Watering Hole, Reef & Wreck, Bow & Ribbon or Blue Hole. Guests can shop for original artwork from local artists at Treasures of Eleuthera, fashion accessories at Disney T’ings, or have their hair braided at Plaits and Pleats.
Families will enjoy Rush Out Gust Out, the island’s family-friendly water area. It includes water sprayers and tube slides for kids. Sebastian’s Cove is a splash pad inspired by The Little Mermaid. Parents can check their children in to Sebastian’s Cove and enjoy a day of relaxation knowing their children are being cared for by Disney youth staff.
Guests can rent bicycles and ride along a series of bike paths throughout the island. There is a walking nature trail that will take guests to see the old lighthouse. Guests can choose to walk it on their own or book a guided tour. Prefer water? Guests can go snorkeling, kayaking or take a boat escape.
Guests that enjoy character meet and greets will be thrilled to know Disney characters will appear for photo ops. Additionally, Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy are part of “RUSH! A Junkanoo Celebration” and Chip, Dale, Goofy and Pluto are part of the “Disney Fun in the Sun Beach Bash” at the Play-Play Pavilion.
Only Disney Cruise Line ships visit Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point including Disney Wish, Disney Magic, Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy. Disney Destiny is scheduled to begin calling on the island in November.
