It's kind of unclear whether cruise passengers are affected by this rule or not. From the US Embassy website: https://bs.usembassy.gov/covid-19-information/ Effective January 7, 2022, using a COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test will no longer be accepted and children ages 2 through 11 will be required to show proof of a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test taken no more than three days (72 hours) prior to the date of arrival to The Bahamas. Children under the age of 2 are exempt from any testing requirements. Cruise Passengers: All travelers entering The Bahamas on a cruise ship are subject to the testing requirements mandated by the cruise line and approved by The Bahamian government. That second bullet point kinda suggests an exemption based on the cruise line's existing testing policy?

Great photos! Thanks for sharing!

We just came back from the New Years sailing on Adventure. Same thing - the crowding on the Promenade was extreme, to the point we had to leave and missed the balloon drop. The crowd was packed so tightly it was unbearable, and frankly, unsafe. It was truly disappointing...
