Destination information
Mmmm...the Bahamas – holiday heaven. The climate is mild year-round, the beaches are excellent and there's plenty to do. One day you can be snorkeling, the next feeding sharks! You can even swim with dolphins - the highlight of many a Bahamas holiday. New Providence is home to Nassau and famous Cable Beach. Grand Bahama has a more laid-back feel with miles of incredible south-facing beaches. The Abaco Islands are larger but less populated, making them ideal for a back-to-nature experience. The Bahamas is known as 'the sailing capital of the world', and hopping aboard a yacht is certainly a great way to explore its hidden coves and deserted beaches!
We have a great selection of hotels for you to choose from too, whether you're looking for romantic seclusion or fun and excitement for all the family. And don't forget, if you’re on a Bahamas inclusive holiday your meals at your resort are already paid for so you can get on with enjoying your break. Perfect.
