Where Should I go: Freeport or Naples?

Freeport

When you picture the Bahamas you likely picture the beaches, resorts and playgrounds of Nassau. Just to the northwest of this tourist paradise is a tropical city founded on industry. Freeport began as mostly swampland and is now the second most populous city in the Bahamas.

This city is less of a tourist attraction - a place where you'll find the true Bahaman culture mixed in with some relaxing spots to help you unwind and get into your island vacation.

Naples

Located on the Gulf of Mexico on Florida's southwest coast, Naples is a city best known for its high-end shopping opportunities and golf courses, as well as miles of beaches with calm waters and fine sugar-white sand.
