Winter-weary travelers head to Nassau to soak up sunshine, but the Bahamas offers far more than beaches and warm weather.
“We’ve seen strong demand from families who want activities beyond lounging by the pool,” said Fred Lounsberry, CEO of the Nassau Paradise Island Promotion Board. “Visitors can enjoy museums, immersive tours and a range of family-friendly experiences. Nassau Paradise Island provides opportunities for both learning and fun, with beaches and scenic beauty as a bonus.”
- Pirates of Nassau Interactive Museum: Between 1690 and 1720, Nassau was home to one of the highest concentrations of pirates in the New World. The Pirates of Nassau Interactive Museum combines entertainment with education, and guests can board a replica pirate ship for an engaging, hands-on history lesson.
- Tru Bahamian Food Tours: Led by knowledgeable Bahamian guides, these tours introduce visitors to local cuisine and culture. Through food tastings and neighborhood stops, families gain insight into Bahamian traditions and flavors.
- Dolphin Cay: At Atlantis, Paradise Island, Dolphin Cay is one of the world’s largest and most advanced marine habitats and rescue-rehabilitation centers. This 14-acre facility lets families interact with dolphins, sea lions and stingrays while learning about marine life and conservation.
