Bahamas - don't fall for the negative hype


Just stay away from Freeport and Nassau. 99.999% of the bad stuff you read happens to stupid tourists in one of these 2 places.

Catch Silver from FLL to either Eleuthra or Marsh Harbour. There are some fabulous resorts tucked away out there that will cater to your blue water whim.

Suggestion - fly to Marsh Harbour and catch the ferry to Hope Town. Check out the Hope Town Harbour Lodge - they may have their own ferry from MH. Pink sand/blue water Atlantic beach out front and you can arrange any number of excursions from there.

First time we went I was expecting it to be like Florida east, and maybe Nassau is. But the Abacos and Eleuthra are very rural, and as beautiful as anywhere we've been. What surprised me is the rocky outcrops - even cliffs. You don't see that in Fla.
