Has anyone been to Bahamas recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips
I was there in 2024 and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.
