Special Highlights |
| |
 |
Attractions
It¡¦s true that beaches are a big attraction in The Bahamas. But
something that won¡¦t be found on the shores is the rich history and
culture of each island and its people. |
| |
 |
Boating & Sailing
Since the day they were first discovered by ship, the 700 islands
in The Bahamas have increasingly become a magnet for sea vessels.
Fuel up. Chart a course. Uninhabited cays, hidden coves, annual
regattas, and modern marinas will sweeten the voyage.
|
| |
 |
Ecotours
The ecosystem of The Bahamas is a natural playground for a variety
of ecotour pursuits. Hook up with guides for exploration under the
water, on the water, and across the terra firma. |
| |
 |
Family Fun
Maybe it¡¦s Bahamian familial values or our appreciation for big
smiles of the small variety. Regardless, special programs for children
abound. Give the sitter a vacation, too. Bring the kids along. See
The Bahamas in a way only a child can. |
| |
 |
Golf
Championship fairways and greens await golfers eager to bring their
game to a new level¡Xmere feet above sea level. The scenery can turn
even a bad round into a flawless day of vacation. |
| |
 |
Fishing
See why The Bahamas has produced over 50 record catches. Come for
big-game tournaments, deep-sea charters, or to witness the vigorous
strike of the bonefish. |
| |
 |
Shopping
Bring an appetite for authenticity. Today¡¦s Bahamians continue
the tradition of early island natives by using local resources to
create distinct items that reflect their heritage. Straw markets
reveal foods, spices, ceramics, crafts, art, and music.
