Underwater cave systems : During the glacial period, the sea level was as low as 250 feet below its present level. During this time, the limestone that forms the islands was eroded by acid rain, which ended up cutting hundreds of systems of vertical and horizontal caves that are now below the islands.

The name “Bahamas” comes from the Spanish words “baja mar”, meaning shallow water or sea.

The first people that inhabited the island were called the Tainos.

Plunging 202 metres into the sea, it’s the deepest blue hole in the world.

Versailles Gardens, Paradise Island Versailles Gardens on Paradise Island is one of the most popular place to get married in the Bahamas.

The longest (known) underwater cave system in the world can be found in Lucayan National Park, on Grand Bahama Island.

Every celebrity in every category must use their infuening power or their own responsibility to help climate change which is already crossing dangerous propoertions. Not climate change activism but something which is legally ok with the government of their country. World is an integration of all countries. Climate change is an example.
