Compare Bahamas holidays

If you have a quieter holiday in mind, head to Stocking Island in the Exumas or Treasure Cay in the Abacos to enjoy glittering white sands and sparkling waters without the crowds.

Enjoy more than just lounging on the beach

With countless exhilarating activities on offer to fill your days and nights, all-inclusive holidays in the Bahamas aren’t just about lazing on the beach.

For instance, you can snorkel in the black-coral gardens off the coast of Bimini, or enjoy wildlife viewing and hiking in Lucayan National Park, then shop for cheap Bahamas souvenirs in the duty-free shops of downtown Nassau. At night, head to a glamorous casino or nightclub, or just watch the sun set from a casual beach bar with a chilled beer in hand.

Feast on the islands’ rich cultural heritage

Bahamian culture is a fascinating mixture of African, European and Caribbean Creole influences. An example of a great evening might involve listening to a performance of traditional ‘rake n scrape’ music, which is created using homemade instruments, while dining on conch, a sea snail used in all kinds of Bahamian dishes, and sipping on creative rum-based drinks.

If you’re not a hardcore party animal, you may also want to avoid planning cheap Bahamas holidays during college spring break in March, when the hotels fill with boisterous students.

Summer in the Bahamas is hot and humid, with the rainy season spanning from May to October. Despite the name, you can still expect plenty of sunny days during the rainy season, although the weather isn’t as consistently good as it is in winter.

Cheap Bahamas flight deals are much easier to snag during ‘off season’, and many hotels run room sales.

Don't risk jetting off on holiday without first ensuring you have adequate travel insurance for your trip.
