Comprised of more than 700 islands, only 30 of which are inhabited, The Bahamas are ideal for those seeking to pair an easy-going beach break with some marine-based adventuring. It’s a first-rate diving and snorkelling destination, with vibrant coral gardens, underwater caves and atmospheric shipwrecks all waiting to be explored. Beaches range from lively bar-backed stretches of golden sand to footprint-free coves that offer total seclusion. There’s even a rosy pink-hued beach on the beautiful Harbour Island .
In addition to the wealth of water sports on offer, visitors can tee off amid spectacular scenery, enjoy world-class restaurants in the capital city, Nassau , and explore historic plantations such as Clifton Heritage National Park on New Providence Island to learn about the archipelago’s colonial past and African heritage. For a truly one-off experience, be sure to visit The Exumas ’ famous swimming pigs.
Although technically located in the Atlantic, The Bahamas offer classic Caribbean temperatures – hot summer months and balmy winter sun. A diverse range of accommodation is offer, from all-inclusive resorts and luxury beachfront hotels to smaller, more intimate options that offer an authentic Bahamian experience.
