Close to the East Coast of the United States, the Bahamas are known as a refuge from the harsh winters of the north. But there's more to this paradise than sugar-white beaches and warm sunshine. You can swim with dolphins and tropical fish in the turquoise waters. Or soar above the sea in a parasail. Then explore the islands' thrilling history as a haven for pirates - a "Privateer's Republic" was formed at one point with Blackbeard himself as the magistrate.
Discover the turquoise water and the glowing reds and yellows of tropical fish gliding by. The brilliant colors of the Bahamas are alive in the flora of Ardastra Gardens and Conservation Center and in Nassau's Straw Market wares. Now, close your eyes on the pristine beaches of Cococay, an island reserved for Royal Caribbean guests only.
