A
Bahamas vacation is something that most travelers will never forget.
The 700 islands of the Bahamas make up a 100,000-square-mile
archipelago, extending over 500 miles. Including uninhabited cays and
large rocks, it has a total estimated land area of 5,382 miles. The two
main islands are New Providence Island and Grand Bahama Island,
although the smaller islands of Abacos, Acklins, Andros, The Berry
Islands, Bimini, Cat Island, Eleuthera, The Exumas, Inagua, Mayaguana,
and San Salvador also offer prime vacation spots.
Grand Bahama
Island vacations are perhaps the most popular. As the fourth largest
island in the Bahamas, Grand Bahama Island extends for 96 miles against
emerald green water. The island’s many cities, towns, and villages
provide a unique combination of a cosmopolitan locales, historical
fishing villages, and undiscovered ecological treasures. The island
also has one of the world's largest underwater cave systems, three
national parks, endless beaches, and enchanting marine life.
Nassau,
as the capital city of the Bahamas on New Providence Island, is also a
popular vacation destination.. Along with its neighbor Paradise Island,
these two pieces of land mix glamour with tropical ease. Nassau is
prized for its sheltered harbor, and the city has managed to preserve
its beautiful colonial mansions, cathedrals, 18-th century fortresses,
and a Queen's staircase whose 66 steps lead to a view that simply is
not to be missed.
Many dream their whole lives of a Bahamas
vacation, and with the scenery, culture, and history to be found on
Grand Bahama Island and in Nassau, it is easy to see why.
