Don’t underestimate the islands of the Bahamas. I last visited the Bahamas last year before Thanksgiving, for a last minute quick beach getaway. I was having a stressful time at work and needed an escape to relax and reboot. I picked the Bahamas as the go to destination instead of my usual easy escape, Florida. I was desperate to feel the sand under my feet and be a lazy beach bum. After all, a beach is a beach and the Bahamas has plenty of those. But of course, I also explored the city and enjoyed it as well as I enjoyed the beaches.
And of course, it won’t be a vacation without this!
As it turned out, Bahamas has more to offer than its beaches. I enjoyed walking around the city and exploring its historical nooks and crannies. I especially love the architecture and its color palette. There were a lot of pink buildings, I noticed. The Bahamas is the perfect beach weekend getaway!
