1. Mangrove lagoon

One of the most recognizable features of The Bahamas, mangroves grow all along our coasts, protecting shorelines from erosion and buffering inshore areas from storms. The tangled roots of these graceful trees create vital nursery habitat for fish, crustaceans, and invertebrates.

In our Mangrove Lagoon, guests can view some of the native red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) growing on the shoreline. Since 2010, we have donated more than 7,000 young mangrove trees to support wetland restoration.   

2. blue hole lagoon

Blue holes are ancient underwater cave systems carved into the ocean floor by glacial runoff during the last ice age.

Our Blue Hole Lagoon gives tribute to the spectacular blue holes found throughout The Bahamas.

3. PARADISE ESTUARY LAGOON

Estuaries are formed when streams and rivers flow into seawater. Many habitats thrive around estuaries including mangrove forests, sandy beaches, rocky shores, tidal pools, and sea grasses.

Paradise Estuary Lagoon, with its sandy beach and mangrove habitats, is home to more than 20 species of fish, lobster, and conch.
