CRUISING WITH KIDS
Spending a whole week rapt with your children on a boat is a not something many people would like to experience, but day and a night cruise would be more palatable for most. Discovery cruise lines have cruise packages tailor made for parents who want to bring there children along and they are pocket friendly too. A five hour cruise from Fort Lauderdale to Grand Bahama Island starts at $ 40 for children aged 6 to 12 years for a night if accompanied by an adult, children under 6 sail and stay for free.
A family of four (with 1 child under 6 and another under 12) can have two days sailing and beaching for approximately $450, and that’s including meals on board, the additional charge for the older child and taxes and fees. Additional nights on Grand Bahama Island are $35 extra per night per person. Bahamian departure fee, fuel charges and taxes are not included. In the low cost cruises children have to sleep in same room with there parents.
