If you haven't tried the infamous Tortuga Rum Cakes buy some to try or get them for souvenirs.

If you are looking for diamonds (yellow, pink, green) for proposal then check out the jewelry stores.

I don't think there is a Hard Rock Cafe at Freeport anymore? If you are also stopping by Nassau, Bahamas then there is a Hard Rock Cafe.

gorgeous island, as said fairly quiet
safe, friendly
if u like snorkeling bring gear and check out dead mans reef
Gold Rock beach is gorgeous
eat the conch fritters and or conch chowder
but yah not much else to do
rent a scooter and ride around
was just there over xmas/new years with my gf at an all inclusive
i highly recommend checking in online if you're flying in with sunwing, its a total mfker when departing
its not really cheap, everything is in usd

Was there in January at a resort called Memories all inclusive.
went to casino
jogged the beach
ate lots of AYCE
drank all included ( booze sucks they give u the cheap local stuff)
went horseback riding. was fun but the owner is a crazy cat lady so try to hang out with the guy tourguide

overall I didn't like it. Weather was a little rainy not as hot as I liked it.

Case in point, this skinny guy comes into the gym the other day, must have only weighed ~ 140lbs, loads on 2 plates on the bench rack, mutters to himself, for sparta, unracks the barbell and proceeds to drop it directly on his chest.
