A scattering of over 700 subtropical islands, uninhabited cays and great crescents of coral reef, The Bahamas set the stage for a beach escape. You’ll find limestone-white coves and honeyed beaches encircling lush mangroves, thick forest and towns that come alive with the pulsing beat of a rake-and-scrape band.
Our specialists can provide expert recommendations for a holiday to The Bahamas, from the Georgian-era architecture of Nassau and the polished beach resorts of Paradise Island, to the long stretches of pink sand and pastel cottages of Harbour Island and the electric-blue waters lapping the shores of Eleuthera.
Whether you’re interested in the best place to try a Bahamian fish fry, a guided tour of artisan rum distilleries, an insight into the country’s history as a pirate stronghold or snorkel in the marine-rich ocean trench, we’ll tailor your Bahamas holiday to your interests.
