Where to eat, play, and stay in the Bahamas

Featured Travel

Where to go in the Bahamas? Nassau is a good place to start.

Learn all about the Bahamian tradition of Junkanoo and take a unique cultural tour. Tourists can visit both websites to learn about the intricate process of costume-making and choreography.

The Baha Mar resorts draw hundreds of thousands of tourists a year, including celebrities and reality television stars. The complex has three hotels, 45 eateries, 14 art galleries, and an enormous, state-of-the-art water park. We meet a Massachusetts native who is second-in-command at the U.S. Embassy, and we see Bahamians playing a popular sport not well-known to most Americans: cricket.

We also spend time with flamingos and other colorful birds at a wildlife conservation center, and we talk to scientists and activists working to preserve Nassau’s coastline.

Finally, we meet a renowned author specializing in retelling Bahamian folk tales, and we hear a beloved choir dedicated to performing Bahamian music.
