GEOGRAPHY
Tour Participants:

In many respects the geography is similar, although certainly not identical, from island to island. At one time when the global seas were lower, these islands were part of a large interconnected landmass.
As the Ice Age ended and the seawater held frozen at the polar caps melted, the rising sea level made islands of the higher peaks and created a vast submarine plateau known as the Great Bahama Bank. The highest point in the Bahamas is now just 206 feet at Cat Island and only 5,400 square miles of land remains above sea level.
There are deep oceanic trenches such as the Tongue of the Ocean that plunge to more than 6,000 feet, as well mangrove forests, shallow sand banks, isolated patch reefs, and extensive fringing reefs surrounding Most of the larger islands are typically low in elevation and at least partially rimmed by sugary sand beach. There will be patches of ironshore as well, and the island interior will be thick with casuarina, pine, and palm trees. Some islands like New Providence and Grand Bahama feature well-developed metropolitan centers, and are world-renowned for their banking, casinos, and shopping.
The Out Islands are far more laid-back, and feature small villages where the local populace survives by fishing, a little farming, and of course providing services to the tourists who come to sample their unique pleasures. The Islands of The Bahamas provide subtle contrast, above and below the surface, each offering its own unique rewards for the visiting watersports enthusiast.

    Middle America Index Page

    The Bahamas consists of about 3,000 islands, cays and rocks in the Atlantic Ocean east of Florida. Columbus discovered the islands in 1492, but Spain made no attempt to settle them. They were under British control from 1626 until 1973 when the Bahamas became independent. The Bahamas maintains its association with the British through its membership in the Commonwealth of Nations and through its recognition of Elizabeth II as the Head of State and as the Queen of Bahamas. Economics Tourism is the principle industry of the Bahamas. Around 30% of the Bahamian population is employed in tourism, and tourism represents almost 50% of the country's GDP. Because the Bahamas is closer to the United States than other Caribbean states, 80% of its tourists are American. Natural Landscape Ecotourism, that is, tourism based on viewing natural wonders, is growing in popularity in the Caribbean. The sea garden on the reverse of the above bank note captures the tropical environment of the Bahamas that attracts ecotourists.
