The Bahamas i/bəˈhɑːməz/, officially the Commonwealth of the Bahamas, is an island country of the Lucayan Archipelago consisting of more than 700 islands, cays, and islets in the Atlantic Ocean; north of Cuba and Hispaniola (Haiti and the Dominican Republic); northwest of the Turks and Caicos Islands; southeast of the US state of Florida and east of the Florida Keys. Its capital is Nassau on the island of New Providence. The designation of "Bahamas" can refer to either the country or the larger island chain that it shares with the Turks and Caicos Islands. As stated in the mandate/manifesto of the Royal Bahamas Defence Force, the Bahamas territory encompasses 470,000 km2 (180,000 sq mi) of ocean space.
Originally inhabited by the Lucayan, a branch of the Arawakan-speaking Taino people, the Bahamas were the site of Columbus' first landfall in the New World in 1492. Although the Spanish never colonised the Bahamas, they shipped the native Lucayans to slavery in Hispaniola. The islands were mostly deserted from 1513 until 1648, when English colonists from Bermuda settled on the island of Eleuthera.

Wrote this sample piece after watching Bahamas play ITunes festival. Check them out!! Amazing live work!! Lyrics: Hear a tap on a window pane, You wish it was her but its just the driving rain, She could be anywhere now it's been days, Seems like this lack of sleep is just adding to the haze, You reach out in the bed but its all in vain, The cold that you grasp is too hard to take, In this old house her scent remains, What is left for you to do but abandon this place, Because I don't wanna fall asleep without you... (Repeat 3x) What's left to do oh what's left for me to do... (Repeat 4x)

Travel video about destination The Caribbean. Haiti is the starting point of this journey in the Caribbean.
