Our Bahamian Retreat Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
2002 was our 4th year in Freeport. We now go to relax and do nothing. We go to the beach a lot, or stay by the pool. We do go to the Straw Market a few times.

Quick Tips:

Be prepared for "Bahamian time". The Bahamians are by no means in a hurry!

Best Way To Get Around:

Best way to get around is by driving (we rent a car from the resort) or by taxi. You can take the public bus, but there is not a schedule that I have found; just when ever it comes by you go. Still, it's inexpensive.

Dead Man's Reef at Paradise Cove Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Dead Mans Reef at Paradise Cove"

Quote:
Nice beach, great snorkling. You can get to Paradise Cove by tours from most of the resorts. Since we usually rent a car from the resort, we drive; it's about a 30 min drive east of Freeport. Don't take the bus; it was VERY expensive.
