Grand
Bahama Island, the fourth largest in the Bahamas, gets
its name from the Spanish "gran bajamar" –
meaning "great shallows" as its has many flats
and shoals in the waters off the island.
The
island is 96 miles, rimmed with cities, villages, and
cays that offer lasting evidence of the many different
people and cultures that have called Grand Bahama Island
home. |
Early
in its history, Grand Bahama Island was virtually uninhabited
for almost 300 years. However, with the development of Freeport/Lucaya
in the 1950s, and because of the island’s location just
55 miles from the east coast of Florida, it is now one of
the most visited of all the Bahamian islands.
Grand
Bahama Island is a unique destination. It allows visitors
to combine a cosmopolitan vacation at a world-class resort
with the charm of historical fishing villages and undiscovered
ecological treasures. It has one of the world's largest underwater
cave systems, three national parks, endless beaches, emerald
green water and enchanting marine life.
