What to pack for Bahamas in Dec.
 
I am traveling to Bahamas for my 50th bday...woohoo. Scuba with the Sharks to set the mood for my next 50 years. I have all the warm scuba suits. I am naturally always cold. What do I pack to wear around when I'm not feeding Sharks (capital S on purpose) I thought I was going to be enjoying days sunning in a bikini but now afraid I will be wearing cashmere. Help!!! What to pack?

You still may enjoy sunning in your bikini, but you should prepare yourself for variable weather, as well as the weather getting a bit cooler at night. You probably don't need long pants, but certainly light layers -- a long-sleeved shirt or two, a light fleece, a nylon jacket or anorak, a pashmina. Choose neutral colors, or a color that goes with most of your stuff, so you needn't pack too much stuff.

Callaloo, thank you so much. I am worried about getting chilled. I am staying at the Breezes Nassau.
Will I need a nicer outfit for dinner? Any secret hole in the wall restaurants I should try?
Will I get to wear sandals to walk around? or will I be "hunkering" in my Uggs?
All I know about the Bahamas is the Scuba is awesome. what else should I entertain as fun activities?

Yes you will wear sandals. Do not bring your Uggs!
