The Bahamas would make a great vacation spot

I’m still dreaming of a fantastic vacation. I think sometime in the next week or two I’ll be booking a holiday. Summer is fairly nice here in Canada so I don’t think I’ll go outside of the country in the next month or two, but maybe a nice island getaway in late September would work.

I’ve been checking out all the Caribbean islands to see which one I’d most like to visit and the Bahamas sounds like a nice place to visit.

I’ve never gone diving and snorkeling, but I know a few people who dive and they’ve told me that the waters around the Bahamas are just beautiful for diving. There are a few areas of the Bahamas that have world renowned Diving and snorkeling.

Oh wait, I have snorkeled but that was a very long time ago! Still it would be fun to try again. I’d love to swim among a school of tropical fish. Perhaps I’d even see a sea turtle. I’d love that!

The Bahamas has a rich history. Did you know the island was once favored by some famous pirates? I think if we went to the Bahamas I’d try to visit some historic sites or museums. I believe that when you travel you should learn a little bit about the country you are visiting.

Naturally I’d also want to try out some native Bahamanian food! I love seafood and I’m pretty sure they’d have some tasty seafood dishes. Plus everyone knows that some of the best rums come from the Bahamas so I’d bet that they have some fantastic rum based drinks.

Have you been to the Bahamas? If you did, what sites did you see while you were there?
