Freeport....What to do?

[alwaysmomof1]

We will be going to Freeport and Nassau in Oct of this year. What is there to do in Freeport? I love the water and my husband does not swim. I am not a real big shopper so what is there to do?:confused:

We went to Freeport and Nassau in February.

 

In Freeport, we went to Port Lucaya.

 

I had wanted to visit the International Bazaar, but it was pretty much messed up and mostly abandoned. There is a perfume factory there - you can mix your own perfume and get a Mixed-My-Own Certificate, for about $30.00 - but we didn't get to do it on account of my Mom's allergies to perfumes.

 

We were told to tell the taxi-van driver to drop us at the Casino, but he already knew where to take us.

 

We crossed the street to the Marketplace and walked the Straw Market and shops.

After there we crossed back over the street and went between the hotels to the beach.

 

When I go back to Freeport, I want to visit this place:

 

At the 40-acre Lucayan National Park, the highlight is a seven-mile system of underwater caves, mangrove swamp and hiking trails (Gold Rock Beach is absolutely pristine). You can also take kayak and cycling tours. The caves, in particular, are fascinating; both Ben's Cave and Burial Mound Cave are inhabited by rare fish and underwater crustaceans (and, yuck, did we mention migratory bats in summer?).

 

I am interested in the Caves. (No bats, thank you.)

 

Otherwise there's really not much to see, or to do that doesn't involve water or shopping.
