Nassau Travel Blogs

Background: Arawak Indians inhabited the islands when Christopher Columbus first set foot in the New World on San Salvador in 1492. British settlement of the islands began in 1647; the islands became a colony in 1783. Since attaining independence from the UK in 1973, The Bahamas have prospered through tourism and international banking and investment management. Because of its geography, the country is a major transshipment point for illegal drugs, particularly shipments to the US, and its territory is used for smuggling illegal migrants into the US.

In the valley below Fort Charlotte there is a traditional cricket field. Last night, the full moon illuminated the cricket field and lured Rache and I to the Cricket Club. I felt like we learned about one of the best kept secrets in Nassau. Walk past the gentlemen playing dominoes and go up the creaky staircase to the open air patio upstairs. It was almost magical. The food was rich and succulent but the best part was the live blues being sung by a gravelly voice. Today we took the ferry back to New Providence where Rache got a chance to [View Full Entry]

Summer is almost over but before I let my suitcases rest, I headed off to meet my sister, Rachelle, in Nassau. Since this is her first time appearing in my travel blog, I put the pressure on and asked her write today's blog. Without futher ado, here's her update on today's adventure... Traveling back to the lost continent was an experience in food, water, and fun! Arriving late last night, we went exploring around Zeus and Hera's tank in The Dig. Zeus and Hera are manta rays with at least a 20 foot wingspan. Their welcome to the island was spectacular [View Full Entry]

Who dares to start their morning with a bit of dolphin training and end their day with a dive in a SUB down to 20 feet over gorgeous reefs? We DO! We started the morning off with a dolphin encounter. Rachelle had her very first experience with dolphin training. After getting her wetsuit and a training orientation, Rache headed into the water to meet... Noah! It was love just hearing the dolphin's name. But even sweeter when Noah the dolphin gave Rache a kiss. The dolphin lagoon was jumping as the rescued Katrina dolphins showed their love for Atlantis by showing [View Full Entry]

I’m a month and a day away from the end of this contract and going home. Meanwhile, something exciting is happening to help the time go by - my sister Melanie and her friend Jessica have come to cruise with me!! The girls arrived yesterday when we were in Miami. They stepped on the ship and I immediately took care of them at the lobby bar! I had to work both in the afternoon and evening, but in between we had a lovely dinner in the dining room and then we closed the night in the crew bar. Today is their [View Full Entry]

Nassau is not like I remembered it in 1991, but then I guess that is because a lot of time has passed. Paradise Island The action is no longer in downtown Nassau that is rundown and just plain stinky, it is all in Paradise Island. Nassau is good for what the rest of the Bahamas are for when not on the beach - island culture and colonial cityscapes. On Paradise Island, you go to Atlantis . . . all $1.8 billion of it (so far). We first tried to make a day of it in downtown Nassau, but soon decided to [View Full Entry]
