LeBron James opts for the Bahamas over Miami Beach for his beach getaway. Despite having access to the beautiful beaches in Miami, the famous basketball player chose to enjoy the turquoise waters and white sand of the Bahamas this weekend. The 25-year-old athlete was photographed having a great time with his 23-year-old girlfriend, Savannah Brinson, in the warm waves of the Bahamas.
Despite his controversial move to Miami, LeBron James decided to take a break and escape to the beautiful beaches of the Bahamas with his longtime girlfriend, Savannah Brinson this past weekend. Known as “King James” for his basketball skills, LeBron caused quite a stir when he left his hometown team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, for the Miami Heat. It’s no surprise that the massive paycheck of $100 million played a role in his decision.
The news of LeBron’s departure left fans in Cleveland devastated, with some of them even resorting to burning his Cleveland Cavaliers jersey and vandalizing billboards featuring the star. The police had to step up security in downtown Cleveland to handle the angry crowds.
The backlash didn’t end there – LeBron was met with boos as he attended the wedding of fellow NBA player Carmelo Anthony and his wife Lala Vasquez. Despite all the controversy, LeBron found solace in the serenity of the Bahamas, a temporary home away from home.

LeBron and Savannah have been together since high school and have built a family with two children. Their love has stood the test of time.
In a tit for tat move, LeBron proudly displays a tattoo on his torso with the word ‘loyalty’ despite some fans feeling betrayed by his decision to move to Miami. Over the weekend, the 6ft 8 star athlete was carefree as he flaunted his toned physique while jogging along the beach. He also took a leisurely stroll on the sand with his partner, Savannah, and their two kids – LeBron James Jr., 5, and Bryce Maximus James, 3.
The family seems to be settling into the glamorous lifestyle of Miami, as LeBron is reportedly in the process of purchasing a $49.5 million estate in the “sunshine state.” An insider revealed to Life Style magazine that LeBron has shown a keen interest in the 20,088 square foot mansion, saying, “It’s almost certain that the house will belong to LeBron.” The source also mentioned that the property was quickly taken off the market as soon as LeBron announced his move to Miami, indicating a deliberate decision.
From the looks of it, LeBron and Savannah are thrilled about their new beachfront life – and it seems like there are plenty more beach days ahead for the family.
