Freeport is one of the biggest cities in the Bahamas, located on Grand Bahama Island. Many tourists come here on a stop during their Caribbean cruise. When you think of the Bahamas, beach life will be the first thing that comes to mind. And indeed in Freeport you can enjoy stunning beaches, blue waters and lots of sunshine. You can visit Xanadu Beach, East Palm Beach or Bahama Princess Beach for a nice relaxing afternoon. At most of these beaches you can take part in water activities like diving, parasailing and surfing. Or go to Lucaya Beach which is close to the Lucaya Market where you can buy all kinds of souvenirs to take home. #beachlife

If you find yourself in Freeport in the Bahamas, you can of course spend the day by the beach. However, there is more to the island than just the beaches. The Garden of the Groves would be a perfect place to spend a few hours. The Garden of the Groves is a botanical garden showcasing all kinds of tropical plants, from palm trees to wild flowers. The trees will give you some shade to protect against the sun. Dotted around the garden are little ponds and a few hills. One of the hills has an old church on top as well. Besides plants you can also find plenty of wildlife attracted to the flowers. There are loads of birds around. I even saw a hummingbird. Location: Midshipman Rd. and Magellan Dr, Freeport Opening hours: daily from 9:00 to 16:00 Entrance fee: $17 #flowerlover

Grand Lucayan Resort, Bahamas #tripaway #tripaway

We drove all the way to the botanical garden and saw almost no people along the way, but we did meet more than a dozen tourists inside the garden. This is a rare lively scene on the island. There are more ducks and turtles in the park than people. This is a very unique little garden, and children may be more interested in feeding turtles and ducks. We have never seen so many turtles swimming freely in the water before... When you come to Freeport, Bahamas for vacation, this botanical garden should be a must-visit place. It is one of the few Garden Cafe at The Garden of the Groves that can tell the history of the Bahamas. [Facepalm] The ticket price here is US$12 per person, and fish food is US$1 per bag. Parking is free and open from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Most beautiful sunset/moon rising I’ve ever seen

A few steps farther is Outriggers Beach Club, home to the popular fish fry held every Wednesday night.

Taino beach resort was amazing we had a great time we went on a keep cruise #beachlife #mytravelhacks #freehotelstay #familytrip Great price and lots of fun. It appears as though they're in the process of renovations so some parts of the property are a little dated than others, but if you don't mind the retro 90s look you'll love it. I personally enjoyed myself and had a great time enjoying all the festivities at the resort as well as off the resort. The food is good and the sites are beautiful.

The most beautiful beach on Grand Bahama Island. Take a morning walk to watch the sunrise or evening walk to watch the sunset.

Very nice hotel with many benefits: big pool, nice beach, sunbeds at pool and beach, ice machines at every level of buildings, washing machines for guests. #Taino

Beautiful experience in the Bahamas

I went to Bahama Islands (freeport) and I have visited Grand Lucayan Resort which is the cheapest excursion offered on our cruise. Thankfully it did not disappoint me. They have infinity pool and nipa hut cabana that are so beautiful. The beach by far the cleanest beach I have ever been. Sand is like a powder! I am so inlove. I will definitely come back here again!
