A lot of people dream about visiting the Caribbean. They are lured by the bright sunny weather, white sandy beaches and the promise of a fun time in an exciting new culture. Whether you are traveling alone, with your partner, family or as a group, it is possible to go island hopping Bahamas and have the experience of a life time. There are some things to keep in mind when you are organizing for the trip.
