The shortest international escape on the board. Nassau and Paradise Island put clear water, big resorts and a walkable capital within a couple of hours of home — which makes it the easiest long weekend abroad.

Questions
How long should we go for?
Three or four nights works well — the flight is short enough that a long weekend genuinely feels like a trip.
Is it expensive?
It can be, particularly on Paradise Island. There is real value in the shoulder seasons and in the smaller properties, and we’ll show you both.
Can we visit the Exumas?
Yes, as a full-day boat excursion from Nassau or as a separate stay. We’ll tell you honestly which is worth it for your dates.
