Hear about travel to the Exumas in the Bahamas as the Amateur Traveler talks to Tessie from TravelingTessie.com about these sundrenched islands she has fallen in love with. https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-the-exumas-bahamas/ Why should someone go to the Exumas? Tessie says, "It's a perfect destination if obviously, you enjoy the beach. But the beaches, they're very unique because they're really unspoiled. And there's not a lot of crowds. So if someone's interested in that, it's a really great destination for that, but it's also great for people with kids, for bachelorette couples, and friend groups that are looking for a place to get away from it all. I feel like, Exumas is truly a hidden gem." Day 1: Arrival in Georgetown Fly into Georgetown, Exumas. Check into Paradise Bay Hotel Relax on the beach, explore the hotel's surroundings, and get familiar with the area. Day 2: Full-Day Boat Tour Book a full-day boat tour departing from Georgetown.
