Bahamas Vacations

Discover the beauty of the Bahamas! If you spend each day dreaming about lounging on a pristine white sandy beach and looking out over turquoise water, you’ll fall in love with the natural beauty of the Bahamas. The Bahamas is an island nation, which is comprised of over 700 islands, cays and islets, so you won’t have any trouble finding your own little piece of paradise. The Bahamas has the longest underwater cave system at Lucayan National Park. The Bahamas, with its 2,400 cays or coral reefs, is also home to the deepest Blue Hole in the world and is called Dean’s Blue Hole and plunges 202 meters into the sea.

Accommodations

Whether you’re planning a family vacation, a romantic getaway or a solo trip you’ll be spoilt for choice, should you choose to visit the Bahamas, as all of it’s resorts back on to private beaches. In fact, the Bahamas is home to one of the most famous resorts in the world, the Atlantis Resort, a luxury resort which is located on Paradise Island, in Nassau. Not only does Atlantis Resort offer some of the Bahamas most breathtaking beaches, but it also boasts a wide array of facilities and amenities including a water park, which boasts giant, world class slides as well as a shopping center, a casino and an aquarium, where you can swim with dolphins.

Activities

If you visit the Atlantis Resort’s waterpark, you’ll be able to ride down a slide which carries you safely through a shark tank, in a clear, perplex tube. Alternatively, you may be interested in getting your PADI scuba diving certificate and booking a day trip to some of the Bahamas’s most popular scuba diving sites. As the water in the Bahamas is so clear, you’ll have no trouble spotting schools of brightly colored fish, as well as the remains of shipwrecks. If you’re a keen golfer, also ensure to play a round of golf at one of the Bahamas world class golf courses, as they all boast stunning ocean views.

Souvenir Shopping

While you’ll be able to pick up designer apparel and accessories at any of the Bahamas resorts, if you’re interested in taking home locally crafted souvenirs, such as woven handbags and oversized straw hats, it’s well worth taking a trip to Port Lucaya in Freeport. Port Lucaya is a large shopping center, but it is filled with local boutiques instead of international chains. If shopping works up your appetite, you’ll also have the opportunity to sample local dishes, including fresh sea food dishes.

So stop dreaming about lounging on a beautiful pristine sandy beach and start turning your dream of a Bahamian getaway into a reality and you’ll be sunbathing in the Bahamas in no time.
