The Caribbean islands are casual, so bring light, comfy clothes: a bathing suit, T-shirt and shorts will be your wardrobe. Add long pants or a dress for nights out. A few essentials:
Books and movies can fuel your Caribbean desires. Think James Bond movies: Dr No as Ursula Andress emerges from the water (Jamaica) or Thunderball s Junkanoo parade (the Bahamas). Pirates of the Caribbean , partly shot on St Vincent, captures the regions exciting past. For literary inspiration: The Firm by John Grisham, about financial shenanigans in the Cayman Islands; The Slave Ship: A Human History by Marcus Rediker, looking at the transportation of 12 million Africans to the US and Caribbean during slavery; and Dan Koeppels Banana: The Fate of the Fruit that Changed the World , which explores the enormous impact of this ubiquitous fruit.

Scattered like dabs of silver and green paint on an artists palette, the Bahamas are ready-made for exploration. Just ask Christopher Columbus he bumped against these limestone landscapes in 1492 and changed the course of history. But the adventure didnt end with the Nia , the Pinta and the Santa Maria . From pirates and blockade dodgers to rum smugglers, wily go-getters have converged and caroused on the countrys 700 islands and 2400 cays for centuries.
So whats in it for travelers? Theres sailing around the Abacos history-filled Loyalist Cays. Partying til dawn at Paradise Islands over-the-top Atlantis resort. Diving the spooky blue holes of Andros. Kayaking the 365 Exuma Cays. Lounging on Eleutheras pink-sand beaches. Pondering pirates in Nassau. Theres a Bahamian island to match most every water-and-sand-based compulsion, each framed by a backdrop of gorgeous, mesmerizing blue.
So paint your own adventure the palette awaits.
The Bahamas enjoy around 320 sunny days a year. Daytime temperatures December to April average 70F (21C), and June to September a perfect 80F (26C). In general, the islands are balmy year-round, with cooling, near-constant trade winds blowing by day from the east. The so-called rainy season extends from late May to November; hurricane season is June to November.
High season typically runs from mid-December to mid-April, when hotel prices are at their most expensive. Some hotels are booked solid around Christmas and Easter, and college spring break in March means Nassau and Grand Bahama crawl with rum-fueled revelers. During low season, many hotels reduce their rates significantly. Some Out Island hotels close, but tourist accommodations are always available.
