onecutemoocow Posted December 6, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hello everyone! I was wondering what everyone else does while in Freeport. We are leaving in 6 days but were there 5 years ago and went to a free beach and I can not remember the name of it. We are beach people and will have teenagers with us. Any suggestions???

brunello22 Posted December 6, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Hello everyone! I was wondering what everyone else does while in Freeport. We are leaving in 6 days but were there 5 years ago and went to a free beach and I can not remember the name of it. We are beach people and will have teenagers with us. Any suggestions??? We rented a car and drove around various parts of the island. The highlight was going to Lucayan National Park (not Lucayan resort). The beaches there are very pristine, and free of tourists; we had the beach to ourselves. The underwater caves are not to be missed. http://www.bahamas.com/vendor/lucayan-national-park http://bnt.bs/lucayan-national-park/ Edited December 6, 2016 by brunello22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a local company at the port and Avis at the airport that will pick you up. Also need to come up with an itinerary as we will only have about 5-6 hours to play with.

I believe we rented from Avis at the airport. We had two days on the island, so we had plenty of time to explore. There are some other nice parks and beaches on the island; you will not be disappointed! Here is a link to some of the other things to do on the island: http://www.grandbahamavacations.com/things-to-do/ Edited December 6, 2016 by brunello22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmkel Posted December 7, 2016 #6 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Does anyone have recent information on Taino Beach (Resort). Is there a beach and then also the resort. Can you go to one and not the other. Is it free to get in to the beach part. Can you then rent loungers. Can you pay a fee to enter resort - to have use of pools? Price to get there and back, prices to get in... etc. If they let you in resort, does it need to be booked ahead.? Is there another beach with pool that has affordable access fees? Going in Feb. Hope it will be warm enough for pools/beaches! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecutemoocow Posted December 7, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted December 7, 2016 That would be wonderful to rent a car but we will only be in port from 7 am- 1 pm :(:(:(. Is there anything to do in that amount of time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked a jeep excursion through Carnival a couple of years ago and loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Karaoke Girl Posted December 8, 2016 #9 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I wish people would post current info post-hurricane. I think I will stay on the ship. So many area's closed and washed out from the hurricane in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
