citizens do not need visas for short trips to The Bahamas for tourist/
business purposes. It is important to note that, although the Bahamian
government only requires proof of citizenship and identity in order to
enter The Bahamas, the U.S. government requires that Americans have
a valid passport in order to fly home. Most airlines will not permit a
U.S. citizen to fly to The Bahamas without a valid U.S. passport and risk
getting stranded.
