after spending a month in the bahamas i'm planning my return trip to nassau
and this is what my literal itinerary is going to look like
where i'm staying where i'm eating how i'm getting around how long i'm going for coming up
and if you're new here yo i'm christine lozada with where in the world is CL and i make travel
videos every week hope you get up get out and go travel so if you like to travel consider
subscribing this is in the works so i'm so curious what all of your comments are on suggestions
so drop them in the comments below but let's start with where i plan on staying i love a little bit
of luxury so i will likely be staying at baja mar maybe sls looks really awesome in there or maybe
i'll consider the atlantis property but i will be staying at one of the resorts or hotels and part
of the reason for that is because i really want getting around to be easy i want the taxis lined
up i don't want to have to worry about driving around driving on the left side it's not hard
but it's not the type of vacation i'm looking for i don't really want to be driving around nassau
on the opposite side of the road which is what i did for the last month but these are the spots i'm
considering staying at and i'm getting around via taxi when will i go most people will probably want
to go january or february when it's the cooler months and there's less humidity i'm the weirdo
that likes it hot so i spent the month of august there and that's the hottest month and i freaking
loved it it was really hot and it was awesome to spend time in the water because it's so hot
um but i will likely go i don't know either it doesn't really matter to me but maybe april
april and the reason why i say that is it's outside of the hurricane season but it's not
the coolest month so it's kind of like a shoulder season so my guess is during april you also might
be able to find some less expensive resort rates i don't know who knows again like i mentioned in
my other videos this is not a cheap beach vacation but it doesn't mean you can't find a deal so hot
months totally good with me i'll probably avoid the main hurricane months um or maybe i won't
i don't know but for me hot months not a big deal how about how long to go for this is such
a hard one because it depends on the activities right and so for me actually hold on two caveats
one i'm the notorious traveler who loves the one-way ticket we'll go somewhere until i'm
over it and then i'll fly back uh that's a quick caveat but if i had to choose a length of time
it would be between three and seven nights and i'll tell you why so first of all the exumas
i totally plan on going to zuma's but that will be its own dedicated trip for this one i'm just
talking about nassau i would go for three nights if i'm just going to the resort and doing beach
time some paddling some snorkeling but i would go for seven nights if i'm doing a full diving
experience bringing my scuba diving gear and doing the shark dives doing the night dives doing all of
that and i would die with stewart's cove i've delved with them in the past they're awesome
super safe diving company with great customer service but that's how i would choose three
nights to seven nights somewhere in there is how long i would likely stay for let's talk about what
else is on the list of things to do so if you're not a diver consider definitely snorkeling there's
so many great snorkel spots everywhere everywhere around the island but one of the spots i really
want to go to is the statue which is on the southern part of the island unfortunately
while i was there there was an oil spill so i didn't get a chance to go but i plan on going
back there during low tide so you don't have to dive down as deep while you're snorkeling to be
able to see the statue the other thing is paddling whether you're kayaking or stand up paddling it's
beautiful but if you get a day where it's glass super flat pancake no waves i definitely recommend
stand up paddling and the reason for that is if you're able to stand up your ability to look down
clear to the bottom is awesome and so if you go paddling like that with a snorkel you can
literally see everything there is down there so i would be paddling and i would see all the nerf
sharks below me all the starfish and then i would know when to jump in which made it a lot easier so
i prefer the stand-up paddle because you can see more easily when you're in a kayak you're usually
too close to the water so you can't see down as deep but snorkeling and paddling definitely on
the list and if you're like i like being on the water but that is way too much exercise
i mean my biggest mistake was not going out to rose island this is top of my list to get on
a boat go out to rose island enjoy the islands snorkel and also swim with the pigs i mean how
fun is that so i plan on doing that as well and there's usually a lot of events on the island
whether music events or food events but seeing junk anew is actually something that's on my list
so i really want to check that out you want to know what else i'm going to do eat there's such
good food on this island no it ain't cheap but it's really delicious so eating conk is a must
i talk about this in my seven tips video that i made a few years ago eating a dinos kong shack
oh it's delicious or is it dinos dinos i don't know it's delicious that's what matters
but the fresh conk it takes forever for them to make it but it's a really great thing to eat and
off the beaten path not in the resorts i really love manila grill i mean my parents were born in
the philippines that restaurant tastes like my childhood it's really delicious i'll definitely
be going there and the spot that i miss that i really want to go to is nesbits i really
want to try the bahamian stew so for breakfast bahamians will eat a fish stew or a conch stew
you get it generally on the weekends but nesbits is more of a local spot so i definitely plan on
checking that out if you want to see the other restaurants that i loved make sure you check
out that video in the description below but that's where i plan on eating for sure
last thing i will not be traveling alone i will i did not recommend that in my other
video link in the description below doesn't mean you can't safely travel alone but i
choose not to go back to nassau alone but this is my itinerary and if you have tips
add them in the comments below you got some value in this cheers that like button i have so many
nassau videos check them out in the description i'll see you in the next adventure ciao
