Travel Guide

Bahamas Island

EXPLORE THE ISLAND

Covering an area of 13,878 sq. km, The Bahamas (all coral in origin) occupies the larger partthe  of Lucayan Archipelago and comprises a group of nearly 700 (atolls) ring-like coral islands, and (cays) small, low islands composed largely of coral or sand.

The islands were mostly created by the disintegration of coral reefs and seashells, and low scrub covers much of their surfaces. As observed on the map, the highest point is located on Cat Island, where limestone rock rises to 63m (206ft) above sea level.

There are a handful of small freshwater lakes and just one small river located on Andros Island.
