Best known as the home of the marching flamingos, the Ardastra Gardens & Wildlife Conservation Centre is set on four acres of tropical gardens. The flamingos entertain visitors by marching in formation to commands. A fun spot to bring the whole family, this zoo specializes in the conservation of Caribbean species, including the endangered Bahama parrot and several species of iguanas. Children love the petting zoo and hand-feeding the friendly rainbow lorikeets. This is a great thing to do in Nassau with kids if you want a break from the beach.

With its pink exterior and unusual octagonal shape, the Nassau Public Library is a well-loved local landmark. Although you might not think to visit a public library while on vacation, a detour to see this building is well worth the effort. The library once served as the town’s jail, and the books are housed inside the former jail cells.

High atop a hillside overlooking the harbor of Nassau is British-colonial era Fort Charlotte—the largest fort in Nassau. Built in the late 18th century for a battle that never took place, this historic site offers picturesque views of Paradise Island, Nassau, and the harbor.

We had many previous Airbnb guests who have experienced the success of a day trip with Sandy Toes! Their pig swimmer package is definitely the most popular!!! The estimated boat ride time is about 25 minutes which is attractive as you can spend more time having fun. Swimming pigs are part of their full day trip package from Nassau to Rose Island. The experience (which is totally optional) also includes snorkeling, lunch, and extra amenities.

Next up on your excursion list would be a blue hole (in Nassau of course), but which one! Based on our Airbnb listings' close proximity to practically everything we would immediately recommend Bahama Divers (1 mile) as they are the largest full service dive center in the Bahamas. They specialize in daily excursions and private charter trips.

This is a great option for those looking to check "swimming with the pigs" off their bucket list. If flying to Exuma is not practical then taking a speedboat for the day would be ideal. Given our Airbnb listings' close proximity to Paradise Island (2 miles) and your timeline they emerge as a definite favorite. It's approximately a 55 minute ride from Nassau to Exuma and their day trip option includes drinks, food, snorkeling equipment, etc.
