The Bahamas

700 islands, thousands of deserted cays and a whole lot of beaches—this is the archipelago of The Bahamas, just off the Florida Keys, bound by the warming waves of the Atlantic Ocean. This is our vision of a tropical paradise: swinging palm trees, teal-tinged waters harbouring candy-coloured coral and shores of every shade. You really have to see it to believe it.

THE BAHAMAS TRAVEL GUIDE

DESTINATION FACTS

Language

English

What to eat

Seafood like conch (fried or in a salad or soup) and rock lobster, a dish called Fire Engine (sautéed corned beef), johnnycakes (cornmeal flatbread), peas n’ rice and a guava-based dessert called duff.

What to bring back

Conch shell jewellery or décor and handmade, brightly hued Androsia textiles.

Fun Fact

Many of The Bahamas’ marvels lie below its brilliant blue waters. It has one of the world’s longest underwater cave systems located at the Lucayan National Park—trails take you to both caves, Ben’s Cave and Burial Mound Cave, but you need a dive instructor to swim the passage linking both.
