Nassau, Bahamas, Cruising with Kids

One of our stops is Nassau on our cruise this fall. My kids would love to go to the Atlantis but I have read that only hotel guests can use their amenities.
If we decide to take a taxi from the cruise, what would we be able to do with the kids at Atlantis?
Thanks :)

I would rather do something on my own and not pay the high prices for an excursion.
I will look into the ferry option.
Thanks :)

AWESOME ship. We just got back from our cruise, 4-10 to 4-17. We went with 18 people and can't wait until our next cruise next year. The kids will have a blast. PS - there is a selve serve ice cream station midship on deck 15 near the pools, donuts all day on deck 8 the Boardwalk, cookies all day at the Cafe on deck 5.
Find out if you can get a day pass to Atlantis so that you don't have to book it thru RC. Wastes too much time to take the excursion, to get everyone organized and loaded on the ferry. Definitely take the ferry - the car traffic can be horrendous.
DH and I will try Allure of the Seas in about 2 years. Didn't get to see everything on Oasis.
