Upon arrival to Bahamas Customs, they will ask you where you are staying and where you will be going. The answer to this question is that you will be staying on a charter catamaran from Dream Yacht Charters based out of Palm Cay Marina in Nassau and that you are cruising through the Exumas to and from George Town Exuma and Providence Island (Nassau).You will also need to provide them with the name of the vessel, which we do not have yet. The name will be provided to you a few days before travel.

A bareboat charter means we're renting the catamaran and acting as our own crew. We'll be responsible for sailing the boat, navigating, cooking, and all other aspects of the trip. No hired captain or crew will be provided.

The cost covers the charter fee for the catamaran, including basic insurance. It also includes provisions for snacks and meals on the boat as well as National Park fees (except Exuma Land and Sea Park), cruising taxes, fuel, and water. It does not include your flights, transportation to/from the marina, ice, restaurant meals, activities, souvenirs. Drinks beyond water such as specialty sodas, mixers and adult beverages are not included, but can be provisioned for you at your cost. An order form will be provided with prices included.

For on-trip expenses, credit cards are accepted in most places, but cash (USD) is often preferred, especially on smaller islands.For the shuttles / taxis to and from the airports, we will coordinate the transportation, but each person will need to have cash to split the cost.

Yes, a valid passport is required for travel to the Bahamas. Ensure your passport has at least six months of validity remaining from your return date.
