Back on board Scenic Eclipse, perhaps join a complimentary session in the PURE: Yoga & Pilates Studio, where panoramic ocean views create the perfect backdrop for relaxation and mindfulness. Tonight, settle in at the spacious Scenic Lounge Bar to enjoy your beverage of choice, whether it be aged whiskey — there are over 130 varieties — or a glass of wine, whilst reflecting on the day&39;s discoveries. - 3
Exuma Island, Bahamas
Exuma Island is a true paradise, with vivid blue waters. Here, you can enjoy stretches of secluded beach, quiet nearby cays, and a small number of understated, exclusive resorts.
Spend the day swimming, snorkelling, or paddleboarding in the clear shallows and watching the colours of the sea shift with the light. Or simply settle into the sand, relax, and soak in the wide-open views that define this part of the Bahamas.
As the day winds down, return to your Scenic Discovery Yacht to refresh in your suite and check the Daily Wonder for Discovery Team lectures in the state-of-the-art theatre, where leading experts share rich insights into the wildlife, landscapes and culture of the region. In the evening, savour fresh seafood at Elements or contemporary French cuisine at Lumière+, with a more relaxed option at Azure Bar & Café. - 4

This peaceful island is a haven for marine life enthusiasts and lovers of the outdoors. Long Island’s shoreline shifts from calm, sandy coves to rugged cliffs, giving you plenty of options for time on or by the water.
Highlights include hidden gems such as Dean’s Blue Hole, one of the deepest of its kind in the world, and St Mary’s Roman Catholic Church, the oldest in the Bahamas. Around the island, you will find coral reefs, untouched flats, and quiet beaches that are perfect for exploring, wading, or simply unwinding.
Return on board to the Yacht Club for a leisurely lunch, where indoor and outdoor seating invites you to relax and finish with handcrafted gelato. Later, energise with a workout in the state-of-the-art POWER: Gym or unwind in the thermal loungers of the Senses Spa. - 5
Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos Islands
The Turks and Caicos Islands are a tropical paradise, where powdery white sand meets turquoise water in long, open sweeps of beach. Calm, sheltered seas create ideal conditions for time on and in the water throughout the day.
Beyond their serene beauty, the islands are rich in stories, from the early Lucayan inhabitants to later colonial influences that shaped local life and landmarks. They provide a striking setting for snorkelling over reefs, enjoying unhurried hours by the sea, and experiencing the easy-going rhythm of vibrant island culture.
Back on board, perhaps indulge in an ESPA treatment at the expansive 550-sqm Senses Spa, where signature therapies and restorative rituals await. As evening falls, unwind with a cocktail at the Sky Bar or indulge in Asian-inspired cuisine at Koko&39;s Asian Fusion. - 6
Mayaguana, Bahamas
Once a favoured base for pirates before settlers from nearby Turks and Caicos arrived in 1812, Mayaguana has a quietly storied past. Today, with only around 300 residents, it remains the most secluded and least developed of the major Bahamian islands, giving it a markedly unspoilt feel.
Pristine, postcard-worthy beaches, excellent fishing grounds, and low-key countryside settlements shape the island’s character. Whether you choose to walk the shore, head out on the water, or simply sit back and take in the sea views, Mayaguana offers a gentle blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and authentic island life.
This evening, savour a relaxed dinner at Elements or choose to dine al fresco with casual elegance at Azure Bar & Cafe. Later, retreat to the Observation Lounge on Deck 5 for panoramic views and a nightcap as the sun sets over the ocean. - 7
San Salvador Island, Bahamas
San Salvador, one of the smallest inhabited islands in the Bahamas, is a true gem of the archipelago. With picturesque inland lakes, historic monuments, miles of secluded beaches, and around 50 dive sites, it offers endless opportunities for exploration. Be sure to savour local Bahamian flavours, from fresh seafood to traditional island dishes, for a full taste of the island’s culture.
Return to Scenic Eclipse and perhaps join a complimentary class in the PURE: Yoga & Pilates Studio or simply relax by one of the two Vitality pools with a refreshing beverage. Tonight, enjoy a refined Italian meal at Elements or dine in the privacy of your suite, choosing from the comprehensive 24-hour menu. For those seeking ultimate relaxation, the KLAFS Infrared Sauna and steam rooms provide the perfect sanctuary. - 8
Eleuthera Island, Bahamas
Eleuthera, a narrow island just three kilometres wide, is a paradise of pink and white sand beaches and stunning turquoise waters. Famous for its dramatic cliffs where the Atlantic Ocean meets the shore, Eleuthera also boasts rich history as the site of the first republic in the “New World.” With more natural wrecks than any other Bahamian island and a proud tradition of pineapple plantations, you can savour the island’s famous pineapple tarts whilst enjoying its natural beauty.
Visit the open bridge on Deck 7 to meet the Captain and navigational team, gaining first-hand insight into the Scenic Eclipse’s state-of-the-art technology and one of the best vantage points on board. - 9
