Mopeds and travel in Nassau and Freeport Bahamas:?

Question

I am traveling to Bahamas on Sunday 29th, we go to Nassau and Freeport. I would like to visit good shopping, Paradise Isalnad and snorkle in Deadmans reef, and rent mopeds. Any advice on Moped rentals, traveling to Paradise Island from the docking port at Freeport, and shopping?

Also, any Carnival cruisers- did they give you towels to take off the ship onto the beaches? How long was the safety drills and when are they? And-Are all the pool saltwater, and when do they fill up-after you leave port?

Answer 1

If you were in Nassu how come you never visit Paradise Island.

Answer 2

Here is an excellent site with some wonderful options 4 U.

Answer 3

Freeport- visit Port Lucaya by taxi. There is plenty of open shopping and a casino.

Nasau- visit the Atlantis Resort. It was gorgeous! We went snorkeling on Pearl Island. Everything is pretty nearby and there are people and signs guiding you everywhere. There is the Straw Market in Nassau that most people like.

For Carnival.. you can take your towels off the ship, but you will be charged for them if you lose them. And the drills are the worst part of a cruise. You will have to meet in stations on the boat with your life jacket. You will then sit while the drill goes on, then you will walk to your life boat. It seems like it took forever, but you have to do it on any cruise. The drill is right after you set sail and they will announce when it is time.
