    Things To Know Before Travelling To The Bahamas

    Visa Requirements

    Indians need a visa to travel to Costa Rica and a passport valid for at least 6 months. Tourist visas allow visitors to stay for 30 or 90 days. Apply for an e-visa well in advance, as the processing can take up to 20 days.

    Flight Details

    Flights are easily available between India and the Bahamas. Plan your schedule well and book a round air-trip, which is much cheaper than 2 one-way trips. You can take flights from either Delhi or Mumbai.

    Language

    English is the native and official language of the Bahamas. Other languages are also spoken, including an English-based creole called Bahamianese, and a French-based creole called Haitian Creole, which is spoken by the Haitian population which makes up about 25 percent of the population.

    Currency

    The currency used in the Bahamas is called the Bahamian Dollar (BSD). Besides BSD, the US dollar is also accepted widely in the islands. 1 USD is equivalent to 1 BSD, or almost equal. The difference, although present, is extremely negligible. Do carry a mix of cash and card, as some places might not accept cashless payments.

    SIM Cards

    Local sim cards are easily available, even for tourists. Additionally you can even get e-sims before you even reach the Bahamas to avoid surcharge prices at airports. Airalo is a market-leading eSIM provider that provides internet at affordable rates.

    Tips For Travellers Visiting The Bahamas

    1. Book your accommodation well in advance if you plan to visit Costa Rica during peak times such as Christmas and New Year.

    2. While cards are accepted in most places, carry cash as well. Get local money at the exchange office.

    3. Keep valuables secure, especially in crowded areas, and avoid walking alone on deserted beaches at night.

    4. Only use reliable tour operators for water sports like snorkelling and boating.

    5. Pack clothes according to all climates, as the weather conditions are unpredictable.

    6. Keep all your necessary paperwork like passport and other IDs handy.

    7. Be aware of hurricane season and plan accordingly.
