Florida Bahamas passage

Dear All,
We have not decided yet if is best to cross to Bahamas from Ft Pierce or Ft Lauderdale.

We heard different opinions, in northern Bahamas, I presume, we have to sail the little Bahamas bank to reach the first port of call?

We would like to have some opinion and some suggestion about the mooring sites and the "ideal" cruise.

Thanks

Well you asked for an opinion so you get one. Are you already in Florida? My favorite place to leave for the Bahamas is Norfolk VA. *grin*
