About the Book

Up-to-the-minute coverage of the most overlooked eateries, the most luxurious--and the most affordable--resorts, and the hottest shopping and nightlife on the islands. Insightful commentary on our favorite Bahamas experiences, from fishing in crystal-clear waters to grooving to soca in a local nightclub to taking in ocean views while enjoying the Bahamas' best golf courses. Insider tips on the Bahamas' most stunning--and most secluded--beaches, plus where to go for the best snorkeling, scubadiving, and sailing.
