The area is popular for exploring, photos and a hilltop view of Nassau. If you\u2019re in Nassau, make sure to also see the Government Building too. 8.) Andros Barrier Reef This 190-milelong reef is the 3rd largest barrier reef in the world and just off the east coast of Andros. The site is best explored via scuba gear, especially the 6,000-foot deep ocean trench known as the Tongue of the Ocean. Get certified (or grab a guide), pop on your gear and explore the reef with alongside all those exotic fish. 9.) Glass Window Bridge Eleuthera is home to this famous landmark, a narrow bridge known as the Glass Window. The bridge connects the north and south points of the island and provides stunning views of the Atlantic and Caribbean waters. Be cautious- the narrowness of the bridge makes it a one-way traffic flow.\u00a0 10.) Gorge on Conch\u00a0 Conch is one of the tastiest shell food, well, in my opinion at least. Best of all, it\u2019s in abundance in the Bahamas. Gorge on conch chowder, grilled conch or the yummy conch fritters. They\u2019re delicious. Good food has to be one of the best things to do in the Bahamas! 11.) John Watling\u2019s Distillery Travel to downtown Nassau and explore former estate turned distillery! Known as the \u201cSpirit of the Bahamas\u201d, John Watling\u2019s Distillery produces the famous rum and other spirits. Take the tour and get in the spirit with a few tasters!\u00a0 12.) Queen\u2019s Staircase, Nassau&nbsp; Locally known as the 66-steps, the Queen\u2019s Staircase is a spot you should stop at when in the area. Crafted in the 18th Century, it\u2019s a perfect spot to see a little slice of history. It\u2019s likely you won\u2019t spend very long here, so it\u2019s already good to see if you\u2019re in the area. Make sure to visit&nbsp;Andros The Fish Fry for some of the tastiest Bahamian dishes. Just remember to take cash as they don\u2019t take cards. And last but not least\u2026 The Abaco Islands The Abaco Islands are perched in the north of the Bahamas and a little spot you should definitely see. Protected by one of the world\u2019s largest barrier reefs, the Abaco chain is stunning to see, especially the uninhabited islands. Across the islands you\u2019ll find no less than 6 National Parks;&nbsp;Pelican Cays Land &amp; Sea Park,&nbsp;Fowl Cays National Reserve and Abaco National Park being firm favourites. They\u2019re some of the best things to do in the Bahamas.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Ayush Tours Jaipur\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Ayush-Tours-Jaipur-670592113397684\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-03-13T09:14:05+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-02-02T05:46:01+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ba.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"630\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"355\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"admin\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"admin\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"5 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"admin\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/#\/schema\/person\/a6ab0ac12d776e4d6e5c71601e85a5b4\"},\"headline\":\"Things To Do In The Bahamas\",\"datePublished\":\"2020-03-13T09:14:05+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-02-02T05:46:01+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/\"},\"wordCount\":973,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/#organization\"},\"articleSection\":[\"Blog\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/ayushtoursjaipur.com\/index.php\/2020\/03\/13\/things-to-do-in-the-bahamas\/\",\"name\":\"Things To Do In The Bahamas -

Ayush Tours Jaipur","og_description":"180 miles away from the buzzing city of Miami sits the gorgeous archipelago right in the Atlantic Sea. There really are so many of the very best things to do in the Bahamas, it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re visiting for a day, a long weekend or a little longer. You\u2019ll be spoilt for choice. With its uninhabited and pristine islands, the capital, Nassau and plenty of conch to eat. Yum! You\u2019re going to love it. Let\u2019s just say the Bahamas have a lot going on. With over 700 islands and cays, you\u2019re not going to struggle to fill your time.\u00a0 1.) Blue Holes National Park Located on Andros, this park has been protected since 2002 and covers over 33,000 acres of land, blue holes and freshwater reservoirs. The limestone of the island has created elaborate underwater caves that you can snorkel or scuba dive to explore. If you are more of a land dweller, hiking is an option too. You\u2019ll see loads of local, Bahamian, bird species all across the routes. 2.) See the swimming pigs\u00a0 It seems like everyone\u2019s wanting to see the swimming pigs of the Bahamas right now. And it\u2019s easy to see why. Hean on a tour to the uninhabited\u00a0Big Major Cay and see the only local residents that call this island home. The pigs! They\u2019re so cute. 3.)\u00a0Junkanoo &amp; the museum Next to the University of the Bahamas in Nassau is the Junkanoo World Museum. Not to be confused with \u201cjunk\u201d, this museum highlights the culture and history of a street parade filled with dancing, music and elaborate colourful costumes known as Junkanoo. The festivity is celebrated throughout the Bahamas on New Year\u2019s Day so it\u2019s even better if you visited the Bahamas then. For a tasty bite to eat, head for\u00a0Oh Andros, which makes the best Caribbean grub. 4.) Paradise Beach, Nassau Paradise Beach is a gorgeous and quite popular place to visit in Nassau. Take some time to relax, grab yourself a cocktail and even try and spot a few flamingos! After all, we all deserve a little rest and relaxation. 5.) Thunderball Grotto First off, the 1965 James Bond movie was filmed here, so you know it\u2019s going to be popular. The grotto is totally gorgeous and one of the best things to do in the Bahamas. If you need more of a reason to go, this famous grotto is located not far from Staniel Cay and is renowned for world-class snorkelling 6.) Gold Rock Beach in Lucayan National Park Lucayan National Park is located just 25 miles from Freeport and is home to the stunning turquoise waters and golden sand of Gold Rock Beach. This secluded beach has BBQ pits and picnic tables, which is amazing for a little rest and relaxation. Visit at low tide, where the receding water is locally known to as the \u201cwelcome mat\u201d for the Grand Bahama Island. 7.) The Cloisters, Nassau Located on Paradise Island in the Bahamian capital of Nassau, you can explore the remnants of a 14th-century French Monastery that was brought to the island. The Cloisters have a lot of history- they were literally moved to the United States in the 1920s, and then relocated to a hill on Paradise Island. The area is popular for exploring, photos and a hilltop view of Nassau. If you\u2019re in Nassau, make sure to also see the Government Building too. 8.) Andros Barrier Reef This 190-milelong reef is the 3rd largest barrier reef in the world and just off the east coast of Andros.
