Bahamas Honeymoons

To truly get a feel for the island style of the Bahamas, a suggested stay is a minimum of five days. You will have time to explore the island of your choice, have several beach days, and a day or two of adventure. Make sure you arrive in your honeymoon t-shirt as well to welcome the freebies or extra care that may come along with that.

In the Bahamas, they drive on the left, and roundabouts are plentiful. When not staying at an all-inclusive, food tends to be a bit on the high side, so plan to add approximately 20% to what you would usually spend in the US. Alcohol is cheap, but beer and wine are expensive.
