Post-Nup Paradise

Description:

White sands and gentle sea breezes aren't the only things that make Nassau a premier honeymoon destination. Couples still swooning from their I Dos are lured by lavish resorts and decadent dining, but they also fall in love with the energetic Bahamian culture and secluded seaside villages. They come to cruise around in luxury catamarans, but soon discover the simple pleasures of snorkeling around school-swarmed reefs and swimming with dolphins. This four-day guide will take you and your honey through it all: award-winning restaurants and alfresco fish joints; plush clubs and pulsating dance shows; glittering casinos and glittering waters. And, yes, a couple killer sunsets.
