The Place

Known for its 700 pristine islands and for being a staple destination among tropical resorts, a Bahamas vacation is something everyone ought to pamper themselves with at some point. Hike in Abaco National Park, discover historic Dunmore, encounter the dolphins on Blue Lagoon Island and swim with them on the Grand Bahamas Island. Party on the sands of Cable Beach, go fishing off the shore of Adelaide Beach, and gamble at the Atlantis Casino of Nassau, appropriately nicknamed "Paradise Island".
