Key West is a great town to walk about on your own. Nassau is so-so, but there are great beaches nearby - our favorite is Cabbage Beach on Paradise Island - just to the east of the Atlantis complex - which is awesome, but pricey to access. Freeport is a commercial port - I think the only thing to do there is to either taxi to a beach (I do not think there is anything nearby) - or my favorite Freeport activity - which is to stay aboard and enjoy the uncrowded ship.

Key West: Ernest Hemingway home, conch train tour or trolley tour, eat some Key Lime Pie and Conch fritters.

When in Key West, take a walk to Blue Heaven Restaurant. It's awesome!

Nassau also has good beach resorts on Cable Beach.

 

Also in Nassau, Ardastra Gardens & Zoo is a short taxi ride from the pier and enjoyable to walk around.

Key West is extremely easy to do on-your-own. :D
