12 13yr old kids, what to do in Nassau, Cheap!

[falcon5travels]

My girlfriend it taking 12 13yo boys (she's nuts) on a 4 day cruise. They stop in the bahamas. What is there to do that wont cost a fortune. I know they like to snorkel, any great beaches nearby or other tours that are inexpensive. thanks everyone.

 

PS there are 3 chaperones for the kids!

Snorkeling tours can be booked thru the cruise. Other than that.. there's not much "cheap" snorkling, as the reefs off the beaches are not that great.

 

They may enjoy the zoo... http://www.ardastra.com

Marching flamingos, parrots, meerkats etc. Inexpensive and fun for all.

Not sure that this would be considered cheap but Stuart Cove's has a 3-stop snorkeling excursion for $40 if you book online. The 3rd stop is optional and includes snorkeling with reef sharks. We're doing Stuart Cove's next month with our DD12 and she's most excited about seeing the sharks.

We did the Stuarts Cove tour a few years ago and had a wonderful day. Snorkeling with the sharks was a highlight (the men stayed on board to take pictures of the women and children in the water :rolleyes:

This year we're considering renting a room at the Comfort Suites, you get wristbands that allow FULL access to Atlantis, including the Dig, pools and water slides, works out to about $50 pp. We spent a week at Atlantis a few ago and had a great time.

Hi, We'll be there in Nov. and the Expedia rate for Comfort Suites is $188 a night, for 4 people. Guests at Comfort Suites get full access just like Atlantis hotel guests, The Atlantis rates are much higher. You check in at the hotel, get your wristbands and walk across the street to Atlantis. They don't allow day passes anymore so it's really the only way to get in. It's a big place so it's a bit of a walk, but it's so much fun.
