The
Islands Of The Bahamas is a 100,000-sq-mile archipelago that extends over 500 miles of the clearest water in the
world. Our 700 islands, including uninhabited cays and large rocks, total an estimated land area of 5,382 sq
miles, and register a highest land elevation of 206 ft. Most notable, however, is that each island has its
own diversity that continues beyond geography, carrying through to the heart of The Bahamas, the Bahamian people. You’ll
find it in our heritage. In our culture. And in our humble pride. These are The
Islands Of The Bahamas...
Nassau, capital city of The Bahamas, resides on New Providence Island, neighbor to Paradise Island. This island pair maintains a distinct blend of international glamor and tropical ease, giving
travelers freedom to do everything or nothing at all.
With
its impressive combination of ecological wonders and manmade attractions, Grand Bahama Island generously offers something for everyone, including two or three vacations in one. The challenge
is deciding which to try first.
We call them Out Islands because they are the most remote in The Bahamas archipelago of islands.
But please don’t confuse being secluded with being sleepy. Out
here, activities are numerous, islands and cays are seemingly unending, and the farther you leave everyday crowds behind,
the more you are drawn in to the Bahamian culture before you. So you can be as relaxed
or as active as the day allows.
