Spring Break: Where to Go and Why

Where to go and why, this is the question on the mind of every student planning a spring break vacation. The Bahamas is a good option for those living in the United States.

Grand Bahamas is off the coast of Florida and is very safe for the typical traveler. The crime rate is relatively low on the island compared to other island destinations and Mexico. Freeport and Nassau are the main tourist areas of the Bahamas. Lucaya is a community on Grand Bahama rich in beautiful hotels and activities.

There are many cruises leaving daily from different ports in Florida if you are considering a Bahamas cruise package. They are a fun way to meet new friends and extend the experience. A cruise to the Bahamas is also usually cheaper than flying directly from your city. This type of package will generally include food while on the ship. Some cruise packages also include ship activities and entry to clubs and shows. Do your research and find the cruise line that suits your particular needs. The size and type of boat will influence the price of the complete package. Also, some Bahamas cruises take longer to reach port than others. You may want to ask your travel agent if some cruises are shorter than others. You can also ask your travel agent if they include alcohol on the ship. This will certainly be important for spring break.

If you’re on a budget and want a safe and enjoyable experience, try Grand Bahama…you won’t be disappointed.
