Giantfan13 Posted November 20, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2013 We are sailing the Carnival Splendor into the Bahamas mid February. We do not do beaches or much sun for that matter as I have had a bout with melanoma, so what are our options for some fun?. We are both seniors and can get around, and my DW loves to shop, but we do not want to spend the two days there just shopping. We will be in Nassau and Freeport, and any suggestions would be much appreciated. Cheers Len Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhnsnfamily Posted November 26, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I can't answer your question, as I haven't been there ... I am bumping your post with the hopes that someone answers you! Good luck! Did I read somewhere that there is a distillery in Nassau that you can visit? ... I just did a quick google search and it's called John Watling's Distillery ... free rum tastings, too! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted November 26, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Do you like to go to bars are maybe go to gamble someplace? LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantfan13 Posted December 5, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The rum tasting sounds like something we might be interested in. We usually don't do bars, but like to sight see and see what the country has to offer, if you know what I mean. Are there attractions that do not require swim suits and sand?

coffeyk Posted December 6, 2013 #5 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I visited John Watlings last week. We loved it. The property is nice and the rum was excellent. You can buy drinks as well, we loved the Mojitos. I would recommend visiting. The walk from port is about 10-15 minutes. We did a walking tour from Frommers and just added the distillery. We saw the Queens staircase, Fort Fincastle, and other hostorical sites. It was a good day. The walking tour it self maybe takes 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NNMomof4 Posted December 12, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 12, 2013 This a small & quick tour of a great little zoo that doesn't cost much at all. They have marching flamingos!! Flamingos galore that you can walk right up to...Peacocks everywhere and you can feed the Lory Parrots. We really enjoyed this. You can catch the Jitney for about $1.50 one way.
