BAHAMAS Vacation Budget Travel Guide 🏖️

In this budget travel vlog about the Bahamas, we're sharing our practical expenses for a budget-friendly getaway.

We booked roundtrip flights for just $206 USD per person. After a $35 USD taxi ride from the airport to our accommodation, we decided to opt for a cheaper transportation choice – a 2-day car rental for $100 USD.

We also got around on the jitneys which is the local bus system and the most affordable transportation option in Nassau, Bahamas.

We stayed a bit outside of downtown Nassau in a comfy VRBO with a pool, which cost us $125 USD per night for three nights.

We managed to keep most of our activities budget-friendly, like visiting the Atlantis aquarium for free in the evenings and enjoying complimentary tours, including rum cake tasting, a distillery tour, and tea tasting.

The most significant expense featured in this video (outside of flights) was a half-day swimming with turtles, fish, and pigs on Rose Island with Shore 2 Shore, which cost us $150 USD per person.

To save on dining out, we spent $46 USD on groceries. We'll also give you our honest reviews of the restaurants we tried, and trust us, most were absolutely delicious!

In total, our 4-day (3-night) Bahamas trip came to $612.90 USD per person, covering flights, transportation, accommodation, food, and activities.

Prices can of course vary depending on dates, and the number of people you travel with. This is just to give you an idea!

[seanhenriques]

Thanks for sharing this very nice look at the Bahamas. We were there this year and did not explore but we are going back next year and will definitely check out some of the places you shared. You made it look so accessible and easy which is a nice contrast to what you often read about the Caribbean being sketchy and overwhelming. I can’t wait to explore it with a locals perspective which is always better. Safe travels.
