Are pigs the new dolphins? While many visitors to the Caribbean shell out big bucks to swim with Flipper, it seems others would rather watch the antics of Porky. On the Bahamas' Big Major Spot Island, people are heading to Pig Beach, which has been home to a family of wild ...Natural beauty on display at the Atlantis this summer
No, I'm not talking about the beaches and ocean and trees and such. This summer, the 2009 Miss Teen USA and Miss Universe pageants are being held on Paradise Island in the Bahamas this year – the former on July 31, 2009 and the later on August 23, 2009. So, if you ...Man overboard! Passenger falls off Bahamas cruise ship
The Coast Guard has given up its search for a 39-year-old Norwegian Cruise Line passenger off the Bahamas. The man fell off the boat early yesterday morning, approximately 60 miles north of Nassau. Though he hasn't been identified, other passengers saw him take the plunge. ...Star Island won't make you change
It seems like every effort to "go green" requires a change of behavior. Hotels let you choose to use towels or sheets twice. Your parents instructed you to turn the lights off when leaving a room. These measures can affect change, but they usually don't. Despite the clear ...Pink Floyd Cruise - Great Gig in the Sea
This is an opportunity you don't see every day. On May 1st to May 4th, 2009, you can take a Pink Floyd themed cruise in the Bahamas. The cruise will include special guests, private parties, entertainment by Think Floyd USA – The American Pink Floyd Show, and "numerous ...Brave the hurricanes for cheap cruises this month!
If you're willing to risk choppy water, September is actually a decent time to snag some great prices on cruises in the Caribbean. Demand drops off pretty steeply in the fall because many people are concerned about the weather -- and as a result many cruise companies drop ...Cheap air travel options if the tropics suit you
What I really want is a cheap airfare to New York City from Columbus, Ohio. Since that's not on my horizon, I'm taking an Amtrak train from Cleveland and a Greyhound bus back. For adults traveling with children, both offer a discount that can't be beat.
If I were to head to ...Smells that evoke travel memories
"Every time I hear a certain song, or smell a certain smell it reminds me of the cruise," said one of the 10th graders who I give a ride home from high school three times a week. She was settled into the back seat of my car with another girl as they shared a set of earphones ...Photo of the Day (12/04/2007)
Right now, it's -24°C (-11°F) where I live. Lovely, huh? So I couldn't help staring at this photo of the Bahamas from Patrick Powers with all-consuming envy. When you live in a place where winter seems to take up the majority of the year, it's sometimes hard to ...Bahamas tour that doesn't include Anna Nicole Smith
When I saw the New York Times article "36 Hours in the Nassau, the Bahamas," I wondered if anything having to do with Anna Nicole Smith would be included. [see previous post] Right after Anna Nicole died, taxi drivers would take folks who wanted to see the pertinent places ...Photo of the Day (8/24/07)
Another Photo of the Day from former Gadling blogger Willy. This one features a Lemon Shark, so named because of the ripe lemons they usually keep pinched between their teeth and gums. Lemon Sharks like to do this to keep their breath smelling fresh; they are, after all, ...Anna Nicole Smith Tour: A Bahamas Big Seller
With true enterprising spirit, Anna Nicole Smith tours are already underway in the Bahamas and they are keeping taxi drivers busy. The tours are detailed on Jaunted: The Pop Culture Travel Guide's website. Taxi drivers thought up this tour idea. They happily take fans or not ...Renting an Island
_thumbnail.jpg)
Having an entire island to yourself is a dream that very few people are able to enjoy; buying an island is prohibitively expensive, as is staying on a privately owned island. But, if ya got the dough, everything is possible.
If you fall under that elusive affluent ...Round The World in 100 Days: Nassau, Bahamas
Hey beautiful people, I apologize for the brief absence, but sailing around the world is kind of exhausting, not to mention, the internet is darn expensive out here in the middle of the Caribbean, Atlantic, Pacific, etc. This feature will run every Monday and Thursday as ...Round The World in 100 Days: Fantastic Voyage
"Men wanted for hazardous journey. Small wages. Bitter cold. Long months of complete darkness. Constant danger. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in case of success. " -attributed to a 1901 Times of London newspaper ad allegedly placed by Ernest Shackleton, famous ...New Caribbean Resorts
Now that the mild winter weather has vanished hanging around the northeastern end of the United States is no longer any fun for a non-skiing, boarding, or snowshoeing individual like me. As I sit here in a semi-decent hotel room in Burlington a.k.a Brrrrlington, Vermont , ...Luscious Latitudes Magazine
Lusciously photographed Latitudes Magazine has got a new issue out today and I take seriously my responsibility to let others know about this superb travel magazine. I hardly ever hear other people talking about Latitudes, and that is a shame. It is a lovely magazine with an ...Photo of the Day (9/18/06)
Here is what you call the "diver's four-leaf clover" according to webmink who took this awesome shot of a fiery red starfish in the Bahamas. While I've spotted some in the past none have ever looked as vibrant as the one found here. This was a pleasant surprise among all ...Bahamas Anyone?
Maybe you've decided it's time for a little beachiness in your life. Well, what about giving the Bahamas a shake. Travel promoter Liberty Travel is featuring a new promotion for summer getaways. The costs run from $299, but the folks at smarter travel found cheaper rates ...
