Introduction

Blue and even bluer, these are the Bahamas. So blue that it’s hard to tell where the ocean meets the sky, so you could easily think, and you wouldn’t be wrong, you’re in paradise. This bahamas travel guide will take you through all the information you need to pack up your bags to this beautiful island.

These tropical island nation in the Atlantic Ocean that consists of a 700-island archipelago east of Florida and north of Cuba and is one of the cultural, tourist, political, and economic capital of the Caribbean islands. The name ‘Bahamas’ is actually of Spanish origin and means ‘baja mar,’ or shallow sea.

The inhabitants of this beautiful archipelago can primarily enjoy the most transparent sea in the world and the subtropical climate with about 300 sunny days and an average temperature of 27 ° C throughout the year.

The islands are a favorite vacation spot for American tourists, so all three statements are accurate. Most tourists come to Nassau on big cruises, but this is only the first encounter with the Bahamas, where a great desire to return is born. If you come by cruise, the time you will spend in the capital is quite limited.

Andros is the largest island and is located in the west. In contrast, New Providence is located east of Andros. It is home to the capital city of Nassau, where two-thirds of the population lives. The Grand Bahamas in the north and Inagua in the south are other significant islands. Communication between the islands takes place by ships and ferries. Many of the ferries are comfortable enough.

The national currency is the Bahamian dollar, closely linked to the US dollar. Still, the exchange rate in different institutions can vary a lot. The most stable rate is in the offices of international banks in Nassau and Freeport. Changing money in tourist areas is the most unprofitable.
