Don’t miss the Clifton Heritage National Park for its beaches and history. The Exumas Islands are famous for their Pig Beach (where you can swim with pigs), their underwater caves (Thunderball Grotto), and their idyllic sandbars.

The Bahamas enjoy a tropical maritime climate, characterized by warm temperatures year-round. The most pleasant period stretches from November to April, with average temperatures ranging between 21°C and 27°C and low humidity. It’s the peak tourist season. Summer, from May to October, is hotter and more humid, with temperatures reaching up to 32°C. It’s also the rainy season, with often brief but intense tropical showers, and hurricane season (mainly from June to November).
Bahamian cuisine is a delightful mix of Caribbean and American flavors, with abundant fresh seafood. The conch is the local star, prepared as fritters (conch fritters), in salad (conch salad), or grilled. Fresh fish, such as grouper or snapper, is often grilled or steamed with local spices. The cracked conch (breaded and fried conch) is also very popular. Also try the peas ‘n’ rice (pigeon peas and rice), baked macaroni and cheese and johnnycake (a slightly sweet bread). For drinks, local rum and fruity cocktails like the Goombay Smash are must-tries.
