Find Cheap Flights to Nassau and plan your trip to the Bahamas now

This is the most popular time for Brazilians seeking to escape extreme heat or enjoy the festivities. The weather is perfect, with average temperatures of 24°C and little rain. It is the ideal time to visit Rose Island or dive into the coral reefs. However, flight tickets to Nassau tend to be more expensive and hotels get crowded. We recommend booking at least three months in advance. Be sure to try the fresh conch salad at the Arawak Cay kiosks, an essential gastronomic experience during the sunny Caribbean winter days.

Spring is considered by many experienced travelers as the best balance between weather and price. The waters are warmer for swimming and the end-of-year holiday crowds have already dispersed. It is an excellent period to explore Nassau's historic center on foot and visit Fort Charlotte. Flight prices to Nassau start to drop after the American Spring Break. Take the opportunity to go on a boat trip to Exuma to see the swimming pigs, departing from Nassau port. Water visibility at this time is exceptional for snorkeling.

Summer in the Bahamas is hot and humid, with temperatures exceeding 30°C. Although it is the Atlantic hurricane season, many Brazilians take advantage of cheap flights to Nassau at this time. Rains are usually fleeting and refreshing. It is the perfect season for those who want to enjoy Atlantis water parks without the giant lines. We recommend monitoring weather forecasts, but resort discounts can reach 40%. Drink plenty of local coconut water and enjoy the summer cultural festivals that celebrate Junkanoo music on a smaller scale.

Autumn offers the lowest flight prices to Nassau of the entire year. September and October are the quietest months, ideal for those seeking isolation and deserted beaches like Love Beach. It is the period of highest climate risk, so it is essential to have robust travel insurance. In November, the weather begins to stabilize and prices have not yet risen to winter levels. It is a great opportunity to dine at the sophisticated restaurants on Bay Street without needing reservations weeks in advance. Explore Clifton Heritage National Park to see incredible underwater sculptures.

To enter Nassau, Brazilians need a passport valid for at least six months. A crucial detail: the Bahamas strictly require the International Certificate of Vaccination against Yellow Fever. The vaccine must be taken at least 10 days before boarding. If your flight connects in the US, a US visa is indispensable. Otherwise, via Panama, only the passport and vaccine certificate are enough. We recommend taking a printed copy of your return reservation and proof of accommodation, as immigration may request these documents upon arrival.

The official currency is the Bahamian Dollar (BSD), which has a 1:1 parity with the US Dollar (USD). You can use US dollars anywhere on the island without problems. To get around, 'jitneys' (local buses) are the cheapest option, costing about 1.25 USD per trip, but they only operate until 6 pm. Unlike Brazil, in Nassau you drive on the left side (British style), so take extra care if you decide to rent a car. Taxis do not have meters; always agree on the fare before getting into the vehicle to avoid surprises.

To escape the obvious and live Nassau like a local, avoid eating only at Paradise Island resorts. Go to 'The Fish Fry' at Arawak Cay. This is where locals gather to eat fried fish and drink the local Kalik beer. Another tip is to visit the beaches on the west side of the island, like Jaws Beach, which are much less frequented by cruise tourists. Explore the alleys behind Bay Street to find small art galleries and authentic cafes that preserve the soul of the Bahamas away from the commercial bustle of the port.

To guarantee the best photos of your trip, visit the Queen's Staircase early, around 8 am, to avoid tours. The morning light filtered through the limestone walls creates a magical atmosphere. Another unbeatable spot is the French Cloister on Paradise Island during sunset; the medieval ruins brought from Europe contrast beautifully with the blue sea. Downtown, the colorful houses of Parliament Square make for vibrant shots. Don't forget to bring a waterproof case for your phone to record the coral reefs on a snorkeling trip.
