Island Getaway

Day 1

Your group will arrive in the Bahamas and head to its family-oriented hotel for a quick orientation before exploring downtown Nassau. You can visit local stores and historical sites, or you may want to go to a Pirate Museum to learn about the history of the Bahamas. After dinner, the group will return to the hotel for the night.

Day 2

Following breakfast your group will be transported to the ministry project, where you will work with a local organization that provides services all around the communities of Nassau. Lunch will be enjoyed at the mission site, and you will continue your ministry throughout the afternoon. In the evening you will head back to downtown Nassau to shop and visit Christ Church Cathedral, a great place to escape the crowd and have a devotion time with prayer for those you served during the day. A group devotion time will follow dinner.

Day 3

This morning your group will depart for a full day of snorkeling. The excursion begins with a cruise of beautiful clear waters on a triple deck catamaran. You can later relax on the beach, snorkel over coral reefs or explore the island’s winding paths and tidal pools. In the afternoon you will enjoy lunch at a privateer resort, after which you may want to stretch out in a hammock under a palm tree or enjoy the various water activities that are offered as options to visitors. Your group will head back to the hotel in the evening to freshen up before enjoying dinner and a little free time in town. Your day will conclude with devotions at your hotel. (Fees for optional activities are not included in the price of the trip, but snorkeling gear is included for each traveler.)

Day 4

The morning will begin early with a trip to Paradise Island for a day full of fun activities at the beach and some time for shopping! You will start the day with amazing dolphin encounters, then head out to the beaches. Along the way the group will stop at a beautiful bird-watching site and discuss God’s amazing creation. At Paradise Island you will find family-oriented beaches, as well as unique shops and sites that you might want to visit. There will be time to take photos, and you can enjoy fresh fruit juice or ice cream while you shop for unique items. In the evening, the group will have dinner, followed by devotions, before transferring back to the hotel via taxis.

Day 5

Your group will head out in the morning toward the airport for the flight home.
