Post-Bar Trip Ideas

[hb712]

It's a little ways out, but I'm starting to plan my post-bar trip. That said, I need some ideas.

Criteria/Considerations:
- Timeline will be 1-2 weeks
- We really want a beach. Relaxation is key
- Want to be able to have some fun (e.g., snorkeling or other day-trips)
- We will have a 4 year old and a 1.5 year old with us
- Total budget is ~$8000

I thought about taking a cruise, so that's definitely an option. I also thought we could go to the Bahamas, rent a boat, and just travel around the interior there. I'm totally open to ideas though.

Not even sure if this is a true option...what about taking a cruise to an all-inclusive resort and cruise back?

Put it towards your law school debt. If you don't have debt, put it towards a house down payment. If you own a house, put it into a 529 for the kids or a roth for yourself. You're welcome.

Solid logic.

Here are three options. I normally do the last one twice a year. If your are looking to decompress, you will not find a better place in the world.

Rosewood, Virgin Gorda, BVI

Ditch the kids, and do a second honeymoon. I vote SE Asia.

Humble-bag thread title of the year. You probably deserve a get away though. We're going to Bahamas for a week at the end of the month I think. Wife set it up and added some excursions that she wanted to do. All inclusive I think we're in it for 6k? I'll report back with reviews.

If you can, drop anchor at Manchioneel Bay on Cooper Island and Hang out at the Cooper Island Beach Club for a day.

And if you have never been, get over to The Baths on Virgin Gorda. Clearest water I have ever seen.

Thanks for the tips, guys. I've been to Aruba once when I was younger, but hadn't yet considered it for this trip.

That looks amazing! I haven't sailed in years, but I would love to pick it up again. Looks like you can even book a captain, too.

This was going to be my suggestion also, my wife and I have been a couple times and planning another trip for February.

Fiji is high on our bucket list though...

There are power boat charters there as well.

On mine as well. At the very top of the list. A nice thatch roof bungalow over the crystal clear blue water.
