The closest
island to the United States is Bimini, which is also known as the gateway to the
Bahamas. The island of Abaco is to the east of Grand Bahama. The southeasternmost
island is Great Inagua. Other notable islands include the Bahamas' largest island,
Andros Island, and Eleuthera, Cat Island, Long Island, San Salvador Island, Acklins,
Crooked Island, Exuma and Mayaguana. Nassau, the Bahamas capital city, lies on
the island of New Providence.
All the islands are low and flat, with ridges that usually rise no more than 15 to 20 m. The highest point in the country is Mount Alvernia, or Como Hill, which has an altitude of 63 metres. To the southeast, the Turks and Caicos Islands, and three more extensive submarine features called Mouchoir Bank, Silver Bank, and Navidad Bank, are geographically a continuation of the Bahamas, but not part of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas.
The climate of the Bahamas is subtropical to tropical, and is moderated significantly by the waters of the Gulf Stream, particularly in winter. Conversely, this often proves very dangerous in the summer and autumn, when hurricanes pass near or through the islands. Hurricane Andrew hit the northern islands during the 1992 Atlantic hurricane season, and Hurricane Floyd hit most of the islands during the 1999 Atlantic hurricane season. Hurricane Frances hit in 2004; the Atlantic hurricane season of 2004 was expected to be the worst ever for the islands. Also in 2004, the northern Bahamas were hit by a less potent Hurricane Jeanne. In 2005 the northern islands were once again struck, this time by Hurricane Wilma. In Grand Bahama, tidal surges and high winds destroyed homes and schools, floated graves and made roughly 1,000 people homeless, most of whom lived on the west coast of the island.
The districts of the Bahamas provide a system of local government everywhere in The Bahamas except New Providence, whose affairs are handled directly by the central government. The districts other than New Providence are: Acklins, Berry Islands, Bimini, Black Point - Exuma, Cat Island, Central Abaco, Central Andros, Central Eleuthera, City of Freeport, Grand Bahama, Crooked Island, East Grand Bahama, Exuma, Grand Cay - Abaco, Harbour Island - Eleuthera, Hope Town - Abaco, Inagua, Long Island, Mangrove Cay, Andros, Mayaguana, Moore's Island, Abaco, North Abaco, North Andros, North Eleuthera, Ragged Island, Rum Cay, San Salvador, South Abaco, South Andros, South Eleuthera, Spanish Wells, Eleuthera, West Grand Bah.
You might want to rent, hire, loan or timeshare some places in the nation.
Historically, most development has occurred on New Providence and Grand Bahama, causing significant migration from the Family Islands to these two urban centers and straining their infrastructure. The government is also faced with the burden of duplicating facilities and services throughout the archipelago.
