Biminis: the prime attraction is sport fishing--the island group is the site of many annual fishing tournaments.  Nightlife is anchored by two famous spots: The Compleat Angler and the End of the World Bar. The bars spill over during spring break, when college kids flock from Florida. The bonefishing is acclaimed and the diving is splendid.  The beaches are not the reason to go to the Biminis.

Berry Islands: These small island appeal for sport fishing and a few lonesome beaches.  Facilities are minimal.Abacos: This Island group is the third most visited are in the country.  It's villages are on a series of cays and are the prettiest in The Bahamas, with Cape Cod clapboard architecture, museums, art galleries, glorious beaches, and a caught-in-time lifestyle.  Waters in the lee of the cays are acclaimed for yachting, the East shore is stunning and the West of Great Abaco, the main island, are the Marls with superb bonefishing.  Grand Abaco is carpeted in pine forest, Abaco National Park, pristine for birdwatching and hiking.  A string of small isles north offer prime Sportfishing and dive sites.

Andros: relatively undeveloped for tourism, comprising three islands, offering bonefishing, diving in blue holes and on the walls along the world's third-longest barrier reef.  Smothered in pine forests, thick undergrowth and marshy wetlands and uniquely inhabited by descendants of Seminole Indians and their famous basketry.

Eleuthra: once popular with wealthy vacationers, popularity has picked up with Harbour Island, boasting Pink Sand, the nation's finest resort, Dunmore Town, the pink sands beach and a photographers heaven with scenic headlands, seascapes, plus interesting towns such as Spanish Wells, Governor's Harbour and Tarpum Bay.

Exumas: a prime cruising ground and a 100-mile-long string of pristine cays.  The Exuma Cays Land & Sea Park protects many of these cays and offshore waters.  Diving is first class and bonefishing acclaimed on the flats west of Great Exuma. Adequate accommodations and restaurants are available.

Cat Island: the heart of traditional Bahamian culture still beats on Cat Island, one of the least touched islands in the Bahamas. Obeah (African based witch craft) and bush medicine are still practiced and locals make a living from their basketry.  Historic sites, including plantation ruins and the hermitage of Father Jerome along with diving, bonefishing, hiking, kayaking and birdwatching are excellent.

San Salvador: known for sport fishing and superb diving, birding is good and there is a working lighthouse.

Long Island: virtually untouched by tourism, despite being the most scenic island.  Excellent diving, sport fishing and bonefishing.  It's beaches are sublime.  Intriguing churches, hidden beaches, fine coastal vistas, caves and blue holes.

Crooked Island District: remote and unspoiled, the island group has few facilities.  Attractions are limited to a few splendid beaches, bat caves, and an abandoned lighthouse on an offshore cay.  It's birds--especially flamingos--that are a reason to visit.  Also, turtles nest here in season.

Inaguas and Mayaguana: semiarid, scrub-covered Great Inagua receives few guests. Beaches are few but the island boasts the largest flock of flamingos in the Western Hemisphere. Inagua National Park has dozens of other bird species.  The island has one village, a meager tourist facility and is dominated by the salt industry: a tour worth going on.  Neighboring Mayaguana is even less prepared for visitors but is slated to become a nature reserve.
