Calypso Cove project agreed
BAHAMAS: A megayacht marina is to form part of the $250 million Calypso Cove cruise port project at Long Island. The Bahamas Government signed the development agreement with Azul Destinations last October.
The new cruise port – one of two under development in the island group – will be able to handle many thousands of passengers every day but also has a strong focus on appealing to guests wishing to lengthen their stay. A 200-room hotel, casino, waterpark, 18-hole golf course and retail outlets are part of the plan.
Construction should start by the end of this year or early 2024 and employ around 300 workers.
