The Out Islands
The Out Islands
The quiet, simpler way of life of the Bahama Out Islands, sometimes referred to as the Family Islands, is startlingly different from Nassau's and Freeport's fast-paced glitz and glitter. Outside New Providence and Grand Bahama, on the dozen or so islands that are equipped to handle tourists, you'll leave the sophisticated resorts, nightclubs, casinos, and shopping malls behind. If you love the outdoors, however, you'll be in fine shape: virtually all the Out Islands have good to excellent fishing, boating, and diving, and you'll often have endless stretches of beach all to yourself.
