More about Bahamas

The islands extend for around 1,000 km in an arc from the southeast coast of Florida to the northwest coast of Hispaniola.

They are made of coral limestone and solidified lime sand and sit on the submarine mountains (Big and Small Bahamabank) rising from great depths of the sea (3,000 to 4,000 m), but only rise above sea level by a few meters. The highest point is Mt. Alvernia on Cat Island with 63 m above sea level. The center of the archipelago is New Providence (207 km 2), the other islands are called Family Islands (formerly Out Islands). The largest islands are Andros (4,100 km 2) in the west, Great Inagua (1,551 km 2) in the south, and Grand Bahama (1,372 km 2) and Great Abaco (1,023 km)2) in the north. Large parts of the islands surrounded by coral reefs are karstified and barren, there are no rivers. Only in a few places are layers of clay preventing the water from seeping away. Lakes have formed here (e.g. Blue Holes on Andros).
