The Bahamas is an archipelago of 700 islands
and 2,500 cays. Its colourful history
includes a diversity of characters – from the notorious pirates Blackbeard
and Calico Jack to the Loyalists who fled the American Revolution to rebuild
their lives on what was then British soil.The Bahamas gained independence from
Great Britain on July 10, 1973.
The Bahamas has a sub-tropical climate, friendly people and – according
to astronauts – the clearest waters in the Caribbean region. Not surprisingly,
tourism is the largest industry. Diverse vacation experiences abound on each
island. Nassau and Paradise Island combined have about 26 beaches. Pink Sand
Beach on Harbour Island is named for the pale pink powder that stretches for
three miles. Eleuthera is famous for its pineapples and Abaco for sailing. The
sportfishing capital is Bimini, just 50 miles off the coast of South Florida;
and Grand Bahama Island is the country’s centre of eco-tourism, offering
nature tours, kayaking, horseback riding, national parks and botanical gardens.
But by far the most alluring features of The Bahamas are its sparkling turquoise
waters and powder-white beaches, stretching for miles.
