Nassau Cruise Port: 6.7 million passengers expected in 2026

Nassau Cruise Port welcomed 6.1 million passengers in 2025 and expects to welcome approximately 6.7 million in 2026. As the Bahamian port is nominated for the World Cruise Awards, the numbers tell a broader story: that of a gateway to the Bahamas that is expanding in scale. Six ships and 33,254 passengers in a single day On June 8, 2026, six cruise ships were in Nassau at the same time. The Oasis of the Seas, Allure of the Seas, Mardi Gras, Carnival Celebration, Caribbean Princess, and Disney Fantasy all contributed to a record-breaking day: 33,254 passengers welcomed in twenty-four hours.

Lake Enriquillo: About 40 meters below sea level, a Caribbean giant

In the southwestern part of the Dominican Republic, the landscape seems to defy geography. Lake Enriquillo, said to be the largest lake in the Caribbean, lies in a depression whose surface is 40 meters below sea level.

On August 31, 1896, in Paramaribo, Affiba Maria Magdalena Dompig rode through the city in a horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by several generations of her family. The photograph of that moment, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, became—130 years later—the starting point for*Affiba — The Eldest Woman of Paramaribo*, the new documentary by Ida Does. Through this story, the Surinamese-Caribbean director continues her ongoing work: looking at archives in a new light and bringing lives that have long remained on the margins back into the spotlight. It is in this space between traces and memory that Ida Does works. Affiba, a Face That Transcends Time In the photograph, Affiba is looking at the camera. Standing beside her are two of her children, a granddaughter, and a great-granddaughter. The Rijksmuseum dates the scene to August 31, 1896, and notes that Affiba was considered the oldest woman in Paramaribo at the time. The photographer
