- ✓Book Atlantis Aquaventure passes ahead on peak weeks; they need five to six hours plus bridge transfer time.
- ✓Reserve morning snorkel catamarans to Rose Island when arrival is before 9:00 AM.
- ✓Only book an Exuma swimming-pig flight on the longest port days with a late-afternoon departure.
- ✓Walk back to Prince George Wharf 45–60 minutes before departure; bridge traffic from Paradise Island builds on multi-ship days.
