Disney has an unbelievable reef and snorkeling area at Castaway , it was alot of fun and if you have kids you can do this all day. Also inexpensive.

My kids loved the dolphin swim in Nassau. It was expensive, but worth it.

I took my family to Cable beach and everybody loved it. There was a lot of activities: ping-pong, mini golf, etc. A lot of hammocks. We did it because we had been to Atlantis before. If you haven't, you may go there.

My son was 3 1/2 when we went. Atlantis is nice but for me it was really exhausting for the kids a lot, lot, lot of walking. I would do that when your little one is bigger. Even the aquarium was tons of "stay in your stroller or walk" Just my opinion.

Have a blast its a Magical experience!!!

If you have never been to the Atlantis, it is really an experience. They have a beautiful aquarium, and you have access to their beach area.

The Blue Lagoon is nice, but nothing compared to Castaway Key.

You can't go wrong with Disney Cruises, although they are more expensive as a rule.
