1. The Beach at Lookout Cay

This makes it great for families to snorkel, swim, and enjoy the calm waters at this destination. The beach area is large making it the perfect space to enjoy for everyone. It never feels crowded, there are tons of chairs and umbrellas and great views on this side of the island.

Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point honors the beauty of nature. Every detail in the architecture has been perfectly planned and designed to pay tribute to nature. Lookout Cay is a different island destination compared to other ports of call that Disney sails to, truly focusing on culture and the island of the Bahamas. The Goombay Cultural Center focuses on special programs and showcases local artists to educate guests on the traditions of the Bahamas.

Port Adventures takes guests all over the island to enjoy Eleuthera. Local tour operators allow guests to experience everything Eleuthera has to offer.

3. Sustainability of Nature

Less than 16% of the island is developed. Disney found parts of the area to conserve and tie back into the culture as well as enhance habitats for birds and coral nurseries. The mascots tell the story of the environmental conservation project and how it ties back into the culture.

You'll find raised walkways so it doesn't interrupt terrain, biodegradable straws, recycling bins, and more.

When constructing Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, Disney wanted to have a minimal environmental impact on the environment in Eleuthera. Not only are they protecting and sustaining the beauty of this site, they are celebrating culture, and helping strengthen the community of Eleuthera. Disney Cruise Line is committed to sending zero waste to landfills, so they are reducing waste by using all reusable service ware, including stainless steel cups at food and beverage locations.

The Disney Conservation Team also helped to protect species along the Nature Walk path during the development of Disney Lookout Cay .
