Bahamas

Bahamas Information

Located approximately 100 miles off the coast of Florida, Bahamas vacation rentals are found in one of the most famous getaway destinations in the world. With over 700 islands, some large and some small, the Bahamas have a total area that equals that of Connecticut. The climate, however, is like nothing else in the United States or surrounding regions: in the summer, the Bahamas are tropical, with warm temperatures and moist air. In the winter, the temperatures drop, but are still quite comfortable. When visiting the Bahamas, you'll be experiencing a culture unlike any other on Earth. Influenced by both the African and European ancestries of locals, the Bahaman culture is characterized by a variety of festivals, music and crafts. Check out the Pineapple Fest on Eleuthera Island or the Crab Fest on Andros. Enjoy the indigenous music of “junkanoo” as well as some calypso.

The Bahamas are also a great way to enjoy some spectacular and utterly gorgeous natural scenery. First and foremost, the Bahamas (specifically Andros Island) is home to the 3rd largest barrier reef in the world, at 140 miles long. This makes for great scuba diving and snorkeling opportunities, especially if you feel like seeing some truly exotic wildlife! The warm water in the Bahamas is well-known for its crystal clarity and iridescent blue-green color. Anglers come from far and wide just to enjoy the potential catches of bonefish and other saltwater species. Further inland on Andros, you'll find an expansive rainforest with a wide variety of native orchids and over 200 types of birds.

Whether your Bahamas vacation brings you to Andros Island, Eleuthera Island, or Nassau (the capital located on New Providence Island) you'll be surrounded by the splendor of the ocean, modern amenities, and a bustling nightlife. Casinos, movie theaters, fine restaurants and elegant shopping can be found throughout the archipelago, and sometimes these businesses are just a stone's throw away from a rainforest or ocean bluff! Experience the culture, take an adventure into the wilderness, or just relax, the choice is yours. Check out our Bahamas vacation rental listings now!
