One of the best ways to spend a holiday abroad is on a cruise in sun-filled destination packed with things to see and do. The Bahamas fits this criteria well - situated close to the Florida coast, this group of 700 islands gets plenty of sunshine and also offers some interesting sights and attractions to take in. Cruise-goers will also be able to enjoy some beautiful scenery and a variety of delicious dishes during their stay in Bahamas. Nassau, which serves as the capital of the Bahamas and is located on New Providence Island, is perhaps the perfect place to stay for those looking to combine their cruise with a city break. The metropolis is a bustling place filled with a host of cultural attractions, including Fort Charlotte, which should appeal to history buffs fascinated by underground passageways, dungeons and the boom of cannons - although the big guns at this particular site have actually never been used. Elsewhere, the National Art Gallery of the Bahamas is the perfect stop for those interested in sculpture, paintings and photography and offers a great insight into the local art scene. If all you want to do is sunbathe and party when night falls, Nassau has this covered, too. Cable Beach, otherwise known as the Bahamian Riviera, is just a few miles away from the city centre and is packed with bars, clubs and restaurants. For sporty types, Nassau offers a plethora of activities ranging from sailing and golf to diving and swimming with dolphins. Meanwhile, cruise-goers looking to get away from it all might want to make the short trip to neighbouring Paradise Island. This laidback little island - which measures just half a mile wide and four miles long - somehow squeezes in a championship golf course, the world's largest open air aquarium and several large beaches into a tiny space. It is a far cry from the non-stop hustle of Nassau and could be the perfect destination for a day trip or an excursion lasting several days. Whatever you want to do on your Bahamas cruise, it's likely that you'll find the destination and activity just for you.
