I go there for work a good bit meaning probably 5-6 times a yr. It does suck. If you have kids just stay on the boat that day. Where else are you going?

Atlantis would be good for the kids. Went there last year for work. We did an excursion with sandy toes island. Nice boat ride to a private island with food and drinks. Make sure to get some John Waitling Rum if you go. Only made and sold there and it is excellent.

your kids will love atlantis. lots to do. i think you can get a day pass, maybe? we were in the bahamas a few years ago. stayed in the abacos islands, gorgeous. we flew over to nassau for one day. walked around, toured the town..the straw market is meh, kind of cool seeing the government buildings, there was a small, retro pirate "museum" that was kind of fun (if your kids like pirates of the carribbean and and are youngish they might enjoy it), atlantis was definately the highlight of the day trip for my girls (they were elementary school & high school age then).

The cost of the 1 day passes at Atlantis are ridiculous! Just take a cab to the Atlantis and walk around, then go to the beach next to it. It is a free beach - Cabbage Beach.

If you have kids, this is a pretty good day, but this is when you realize there is a lot of dang people on that boat...Private island ain't so private. Get off early and get a spot/chairs with an umbrella...

You can walk around some areas of the Atlantis for free. Not worth paying the price for the one day pass, especially since you are paying a good penny for your DISNEY cruise.

I made a stop a few years back and opted for a cruise sponsered tour. Gahaha! It was some dude's van just driving through the hood.

Come to think of it that's how all my Caribean tours have been.

I don't even know why so many cruise ships bother stopping there. Must be getting kickbacks from Atlantis, because there's nothing else worthwhile.

You'll enjoy the day there. That's disney's private island. Lots of novice but cool snorkling. Great for kids.
