Last stop on our norwegiancruiseline Bahamas cruise lands us in Nassau, where the homes and scenery are rich with color, but it’s a little trickier getting out of the port.
.
We had to roll our oyamabicycles through the customs office to get a sticker. It’s free, but required to bring your bike out of the gated port...and to get it back in. It’s a cool souvenir, too!
.
We rode east, looping through the fish fry & booze shacks under the bridge leading over to the Atlantis resort, then continued on. The road’s a bit narrow, and busy, but drivers all seemed to be polite. It’s a little sketchy riding on the left side of the road, but just triple check both directions before turning.
.
We ended up at Fort Montagu, a tiny cannon outpost built by the British in 1741 to defend the bay. The “local” was hanging out inside the brig used to hold #pirates
.
From there we rode through the interior a bit, circling back just west of the cruise port, past #junkanoobeach where another row of local fish fry shacks have a better view, and catch the smart folks before they reach the slightly touristy (but not bad) restaurants just beyond. Beers and snacks are cheaper at the shacks!
.
Full, and ready for the free drinks on the ship, we rode back alongside the beach. Adjacent to the port is the Straw Market, which is a complete #touristtrap and the exact reason we brought #foldingbikes with us...to escape the generic trinkets and trash peddlers and see more of the real #nassau
.
Stay tuned for the full story with actual strava maps of our rides and more #protip advice for bringing your bike on a cruise.
