Frequently asked questions
When is the best time to visit the Bahamas
The best time to visit the Bahamas is from mid-December to mid-April, the country's peak season. Though temperatures here are great year-round (they rarely dip below 60 degrees), the islands fall within the hurricane belt, so hurricanes may be a factor between June 1 and Nov. 30 (the Atlantic hurricane season).
What is Bahamas famous for
The Bahamas is one of the world's premier destinations for scuba diving and snorkeling.
Is it safe to swim in the Bahamas
Do not swim beyond the marked areas or you could get pulled away from the land and even swept out to sea. If you have children, only swim when you see a green flag. Sharks and other possibly dangerous fish roam the waters here. Barracudas are large fish, but generally harmless so don't panic if you see one nearby.
What currency can I use in the Bahamas
The legal tender is the Bahamian dollar (B$1), which is equivalent in value to the U.S. dollar. Both U.S. and Bahamian dollars are accepted interchangeably throughout the islands.
Visa fees and rules change often. Confirm the latest Bahamas visa
requirements with an official embassy or consulate before booking travel.
