Working closely with the Bahamas Tourist Board, Howard has updated and expanded this popular guidebook, with many details not found in competing guides. Nassau, New Providence, Grand Bahama, The Abacos, Andros, Bimini, Eleuthera, The Exumas, San Salvador, Long Island, Cat Island, the Acklins, the Inguanas and the Berry Islands � they're all covered in detail. The Adventure Guide to the Bahamas tells you where to stay and eat, the best street markets and malls, and how to get around. A special section is dedicated to mailboat schedules (one of the best ways to island-hop). Like the rest of the Caribbean, the Bahamas offers plenty of watersports, and this book provides extensive details on the best dive sites � along with the best operators � and the best fishing holes. Charter boats and deep-sea vessels. Fully indexed. Maps.

Adventure?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Adventure Guide to the Bahamas (Paperback)
Hardly and adventure guide to the Bahamas, this guide gave only brief mention to various outdoor sports and focused mainly on dining, shopping, and lodges. The information of dive spots is much more detailed in numerous other guide books. An average introduction to the Bahamas, but seriously lacking in detail. Please change the title.

This review is from: Hunter Bahamas (Adventure Guide to the Bahamas) (Paperback)
This updated third edition of the Adventure Guide To The Bahamas And Turks & Caicos includes heavily expanded sections on hotels, restaurants, dive sites and fishing in all the Bahamas, surveying the best of adventures and establishments. Adventure Guide To The Bahamas And Turks & Caicos is an outdoors-oriented adventurer's guide, and destination-oriented visitors will appreciate the attention to regional specialties and attractions.

By John G. Bennett (Governor's Harbour, Eleuthera, Bahamas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Adventure Guide to the Bahamas (Paperback)
This book does not purport to be exhaustive, and, certainly, it is not. But for the price, it is an excellent introduction to a relatively unknown part of the world, The Bahamas. This group of islands seems to have some of the best fishing, diving, and boating in the world, and you can feel it in these pages, which is a switch from most other bigger, more expensive books. Loved the part about Eleuthera.
