The Bahamas is made up of around 700 islands and cays, and the colour of the water here is like nowhere else. Nassau and Paradise Island are lively and easy to reach, but the Out Islands are where the magic is.
Harbour Island has pink sand and pastel cottages, the Exumas are a sailing playground, and Andros has blue holes and one of the world’s longest barrier reefs.
