Top Attractions

Planning a cheap holiday to the Bahamas in the Caribbean can be challenging, but that’s where we come in. Let the experts at lowcostholidays.com help by recommending their hand-picked attractions;

  • For an unforgettable scuba-diving and snorkelling experience, head to Thunderball Grotto. This underwater cave has been featured on the silver screen, appearing in two James Bond films. Don’t forget to bring some fish food, as you’ll find plenty of multi-coloured little swimmers inside the cavern.
  • How does swimming with stingrays sound to you? Don’t worry, they won’t sting! At Blackbeards Cay and Pearl Island, you can slip into the water and get wrapped-up inside a wet coat of tame stingrays. This is another unique experience that you won’t forget in a hurry.
  • If you’re tired of water-based activities, hiking up to The Hermitage on Cat Island might be the thing for you. Although this is a short 63-metre hike, it is the highest point in the Bahamas and is the best place to watch a sinking sunset. At the top sits a quiet abbey, which only adds to the serenity of the place.

Family Holidays

Whilst the Bahamas conjure up images of slow beach days spent on swaying hammocks, there are plenty of other things to see and do for the whole family;

  • Young sea buccaneers will love a visit to the Pirates of Nassau Museum, located in downtown Nassau. In this first-class interactive experience, parents and kids can explore a replica pirate ship to get a personal feel of life on the high-seas, and then plunder the gift shop on their way out!
  • For a chance to see dolphins and sea lions up close, head to Dolphin Encounters on a private island called Blue Lagoon. There are several degrees of participation, so kids can choose whether they want to swim, feed, touch or play with them. With over 18 friendly dolphins, it’s sure to leave the whole family grinning!
  • What would a trip to the Bahamas be without a visit to a waterpark? A trip with a missed opportunity, that’s what! For the best aqua-park, head to Atlantis on Paradise Island. It has shallow wading pools and sprinklers for the little ones, nine nerve-tingling waterslides for the bigger ones and plenty of cocktails for the parents!
