Those looking for an interesting destination for a luxury holiday might want to consider looking into the 700-island paradise of the Bahamas. Boasting pristine white beaches, ultra-clear blue seas and gorgeous weather, the Bahamas are hard to beat when it comes to the perfect sunshine-filled getaway. As well as being ideal for sun, sand and sea lovers, the islands have a long and varied past that has given rise to numerous landmarks, historical sites and other attractions that offer an interesting way to fill your days. One Bahamian island, San Salvador, was the site of Christopher Columbus's first New World landing in 1492, which should give you an idea of the historical importance of the area. The Bahamas - particularly capital city and port Nassau - are home to some intriguing architecture up to several centuries old, as well as popular tourist sites such as Gregory Arch and Parliament Square. Elsewhere, visitors to the Bahamas will find a plethora of natural beauty spots and wonders, as well as a wide range of restaurants serving the delicious local cuisine and facilities such as golf courses and spas. Of course, the islands' beaches are the main highlight of Bahamas holidays and with Nassau and Paradise Island offering glorious white sand beaches and smaller islands such as the Abacos, Bimini, Eleuthera/Harbor Island and Long Island providing more remote stretches of sand, holidaymakers will have a variety of options when it comes to the perfect sunbathing spot. In terms of water-based activities, the Bahamas also has much to offer in this regard - the area is home to not only the world's clearest waters, but also the third biggest barrier reef on the planet. As well as the traditional watery pursuits of sailing, swimming, diving, snorkelling and surfing, you will also have numerous opportunities to go kiteboarding and kayaking, as well as sample unique experiences such as wild dolphin excursions. The Bahamas is a popular location for regattas and other boating events, so it might be worth timing your trip with one of these if you're a serious sailing enthusiast. Overall, if you're considering a luxury sunshine-drenched holiday for your next break, you probably couldn't do much better than head to the Bahamas for the getaway of a lifetime.
