The islands of the Bahamas, although often considered to be part of the Caribbean, actually lies completely within the Atlantic Ocean, stretching like a string for more than 650 miles from the eastern coast of Florida to the southeastern tip of Cuba. The islands are rich in plant and animal life, and national parks and nature reserves offer wonderful opportunities to view the flora and fauna in unspoiled settings.
Paradise Island is an idyllic spot with charming hotels and elegant resorts .
From sun-up to sundown, whether you prefer to explore above water or below, the islands of the Bahamas provide a fantasy escape for the entire family. Land a trophy-size blue marlin. Shop till you drop at the duty-free stores and Nassau's Straw Market. Dive with the dolphins. All rights reserved.
