Over the years, I have wanted to visit the Bahamas. Last year, I got the chance to do so when a friend and I took a cruise there.

We went in August, but the busy time for visiting the Bahamas, at least according to Chase bank, is from mid-December to mid-April. We had good weather during the cruise for the most part. We did get a nice tropical storm come through while we were in Nassau. At least it wasn't a hurricane.

Chase has posted a guide to cruising the Bahamas. 

It starts with:

Quick insights

• The busy season for cruising to the Bahamas is from mid-December to mid-April.
• On a Bahamas cruise, you can enjoy activities such as scuba diving through shipwrecks, swimming with pigs and savoring local favorites like conch fritters.
• Due to the Bahamas’ proximity to the U.S., you can often find cruises as short as 3 days, making it an ideal option for a quick getaway.

A cruise to the Bahamas—a nation comprised of roughly 700 islands and cays within an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean—can be a convenient way to explore this tropical paradise. With warm temperatures, stunning beaches, vibrant coral reefs and an exciting onboard atmosphere, these cruises are an appealing option for many travelers.
