Family Vacation

When you visit Grand Bahama you will find that there are a wide selection of island activities to choose from. If you are staying in an all-inclusive resort many activities will be included, but that is usually limited to the use of non-motorized water sports. If you are taking a family vacation I am sure you will be looking for a tour that will suit everyone. If you are taking at least a 2 night cruise the Jeep Safari tour is one of my recommendations. Now normally when you take a tour, you leave the driving to the guide. Well, get ready to be in the driver’s seat, literally. During the five-hour jeep tour, you do the driving. This is a great way to explore Grand Bahama’s flora and fauna and absorb the island’s history and culture at leisure. An experienced island guide who gives instructions and information over each vehicle’s radio leads a convoy of four-by-four open top Jeeps. The tour follows light trafficked local roads and winds through a skinny pine tree forest and along a scenic coastal trail. The tour’s highlight, however, is the stop at the Lucayan National Park, where visitors climb into the bat-inhabited Lucayan caves, enjoy a light picnic lunch, and relax at the breathtaking Gold Rock Beach.
