Hundreds of snowbirds cross to the Bahamas during the winter months. The busiest time is December and early January We usually cross around Christmas time. Just hang around Miami for a window and then take off. The windows normally arise when a cold front is approaching and the wind starts clocking . Beetle out of Miami and if you're lucky you'll be in Nassau before it comes around to the north again. Rather than spend the time in the Keys shoot over to the Bahamas.
