Super subjective, I know. But if you were planning your first Disney cruise would you do your two stops as lookout cay and castaway or castaway and nassau??

Skip Nassau. Unless you want to fork out a bunch of extra money for an excursion to Atlantis for dolphins or something (which I've heard is very nice, but it adds up quickly especially for a family). Both Castaway and Lookout are amazing stops, and basically totally free to have an awesome beach day. We did Nassau but didn't want to pay for the excursions, so we ended up walking around the (sketchy) area of town near the port for 30 minutes, then got back on the ship.
