Bahamas

Top Travel Highlights in the Bahamas

• Speedboats to Northern Exuma:  A 50-minute speedboat ride takes you to Ship Channel Cay, at the top of the Exuma Cays. Swim with the pigs, feed iguanas and stingrays, watch the amazing shark wrangling show, and enjoy a conch cracking demonstration. You can taste fresh conch salad, and grab a cocktail or icy cold beer from the all-inclusive, all-day premium bar. Enjoy a freshly cooked lunch, snorkel in the Exuma waters, or just relax on the beach.
• Snorkel Bahamas Adventure: The Snorkel Bahamas Adventure takes you to an undersea world of living coral and tropical marine life. Swim with schools of colorful fish in the shallows of Nassau’s famous reefs, on Hollywood movie sets, or sunken shipwrecks. Then if the weather permits and your fellow passengers have the nerve – it’s off to snorkel with one of the most magnificent and misunderstood creatures of the sea – sharks! Snorkel with your guide as the sharks swim calmly below you, or if you prefer, watch from the boat.
• Rum Runners Passage: Take a stroll through the heart of historic downtown Nassau where you will learn about all things rum on this 3-hour guided tour. This culinary journey will take you through the pirate plundering and rum-running days when rum and other spirits played a colorful role in Bahamian history. The tour starts at the Pirate Republic Brewing Company with a tasting and tutorial along with delicious, conch fritters. Then on to sampling rum-infused delicacies at Hillside House, boozy handcrafted chocolate treats at Graycliff Chocolatier and a cocktail at John Watling’s Distillery.
• Deep Sea Fishing: Take 4-6 guests at a time to explore the beautiful blue waters of the Bahamas. After a quick quarter-mile run, you get to the drop where local wildlife swim beneath you.
• Sail ‘n Snorkel Catamaran: Enjoy a morning or afternoon on a relaxing leisurely sail and snorkel excursion aboard a sailing catamaran. Your adventure begins with a cruise through the historic Nassau Harbor and then out to some surrounding cays. You have the option of one-hour reef snorkeling or a stop at Rose Island for beaching and swimming. All snorkeling equipment and instructions for first-time snorkelers are provided. Enjoy a barbeque chicken and ribs lunch buffet in the full-day excursion which also includes snorkeling with turtles.
• Dolphin Swims: Dance with a dolphin in an all-natural deep water lagoon during the unique Dolphin Swim and add to the adventure with the exhilarating foot push! In addition to enjoying lots of dolphin hugs throughout the program, the trainers will ensure that you learn all about our Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins – most of them born at the American Humane Certified Blue Lagoon Island.
