bahamas travel demand — Abaco, The Bahamas.

By the Caribbean Journal staff

The more you travel through The Bahamas, the more you begin discover the remarkable diversity of blues you’ll encounter in the country’s seas.

There are certain blues in the waters of The Exumas; others in the waters of Nassau; and even a special kind of blue in the flats of Acklins.

Every island seems to have its own peculiar shade of blue water, unique and brilliant and crystal clear.

See what it’s like in the latest CJ video at the top of the page.
