Sailing on Saturday, What to do in the Bahamas?

[AquaWtr4me]

Hi all! I can't believe our cruise is this week! We have never been to Nassau and were just looking for suggestions for a great excursion or something we shouldn't miss while we are there. Please help us decide. Thanks :)

We were there a couple weeks ago. LOVED the Sea Lion excursion at Atlantis. The group of six and two trainers spent plenty of time in the pool getting hugs and kisses and playing with our sea lion.

Hi AquaWtr4me,

We are a group of 4 also sailing out on Saturday. Can't believe it is almost here. Really hard to sit at work:(

 

In Nassau we are thinking of walking to a close by beach to a place called the 'Fish Fry'. They are supposed to have some bars and restaurants there. Also might just stay on the ship and enjoy all that the Oasis has to offer. Not sure yet.

AquaWtr4me,

Also there will be a 'Meet & Mingle' for our Cruise Critic sailing group on Sunday am at dazzles- not quite sure of the time (thinking 10-10:30) if you are interested.

Laurie,

 

Thanks so much for the advice! Today is my last day at work before I'm officially on vaction, so I know exactly how you feel :) thanks for the info about the meet and mingle I will look up the time so we can be there. I will also check on the beach you spoke of. Can't wait, and hopefully we will get to meet you guys.

Laurie,

 

"Fish Fry" is what the locals call Arawak Cay in Nassau. It is the locals hangout which in my mind means it is good. The Seafood Haven is THE place to go for reasonably priced Bahamian food. The Conch Stew and Conch Fritters are great! Go upstairs and savor the view. It is one of our fav places to go in Nassau.

 

Goldies and Twin Brothers is also very good. The beach there is really nice with lots of sea shells. I would take a cab over there though. You can walk there but the cab ride is cheap and gets you to/from the docks quickly. Enjoy your cruise!!!
