Today: Brea Baker shares her top tips for vacationing in the Bahamas.
Made up of more than 2,000 small islands and cays, the Bahamas is situated in the Atlantic Ocean just off Florida’s coast. Most of these areas—home to coral reefs, caves and various animals—aren’t inhabited by people. You’ll find Bahamian residents and tourists alike only on the few dozen islands north of Cuba, the most famous of which are Nassau and Freeport. The remaining islands are referred to as “out” or “family islands.”
