Bahamas

With an elixir of life that’s centred on the spectacular blue waters of the Caribbean, The Bahamas are also a glossy rich playground of world-class golf, tennis and spa indulgences.<br /> <br /> Of all the Caribbean islands, The Bahamas probably boast more beaches than the rest of the Caribbean put together, but because they are a little more developed, appeal to many who want a little more than one deserted beach after another.<br /> <br /> Nassau is on the high-octane side of things: a favourite stop-off for cruise ships, rammed with colourful locals and hotspots for those who like a touch of decadence and where anything from super casinos to deserted pink-sand beaches can be found.
