The Freeport cruise port is one of the most popular cruise destinations in the Bahamas and a resort day pass is one of the best ways to spend your time at port. Instead of piecing together individual activities, you get all-inclusive access to a resort’s beach, pools, food, and drinks for one fixed price.

We’ve cruised to the Bahamas many times and have done the “standard” tours. They’re great. Freeport has amazing beaches, crystal-clear waters, perfect weather, and friendly people. But we’ve found that the most convenient way to enjoy everything Freeport has to offer is with a resort day pass.

Below, we compare every Freeport resort day pass option available to cruise passengers. We include pricing, ratings, amenities, and distance from the cruise port. You’ll find everything that you need to make the best decision possible for your Freeport shore excursion!

// Why a day pass

Why a Freeport resort day pass beats a DIY port day

01 · Safety

6.4

out of 10

Ranked #111 of 131 ports

Country average 7.7

The Bahamas is generally considered a safe cruise destination. Freeport is a well-established tourist area and most visitors have a trouble-free experience. That said, it’s always smart to stay aware of your surroundings and stick to well-traveled areas, especially if you venture beyond the port on your own. A resort is still your best option for peace of mind. You’ll be within the protected grounds of a well-managed property with security staff on site. It’s the most worry-free way to enjoy your day in Freeport. We’ve never heard of an incident at any of these resorts, and you’ll have everything you need right at your fingertips.

// FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much is a Freeport resort day pass?

A Freeport resort day pass costs $89 for an adult. Child passes cost $55.

Which Freeport day pass is closest to the cruise port?

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach is the closest, about 31 minutes from the cruise port by road.

Can kids use a Freeport resort day pass?

Kids are welcome at Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach (ages 3 to 16).

How do I get from the Freeport cruise port to the resort?

There are taxis waiting right outside the cruise terminal at Freeport Harbour. Check each listing to see whether round-trip transfers are included. If you’re grabbing a taxi independently, just confirm the fare before you hop in.

Do I need to book my Freeport resort day pass in advance?

We’d strongly recommend it. Booking ahead is the smart move, especially during peak cruise season from November through April. Passes can sell out on busy ship days, and reserving early locks in your price and guarantees your spot. You can book online through the links in each listing above.

Is a Freeport resort day pass worth it?

We think it’s absolutely worth it. Consider what a DIY beach day runs you: chair rental is $20+, then add food, a few ice-cold Kaliks, and maybe some snorkeling. That’s easily $100+ per person, and you’re still coordinating everything yourself. A day pass bundles it all into one price with resort-quality facilities, better service, and zero stress. For a relaxing day in Freeport, it’s tough to beat.
