If you were to conjure up the ideal luxury holiday, you’d probably end up in the Bahamas. With a<br />
welcome as warm as the weather, this island paradise has some great adventures in store for you.<br />
Swim with Pigs<br />
You heard it right: a trip to the Bahamas wouldn’t be<br />
complete without a splash around with some of the<br />
friendly local inhabitants. Hop on a boat tour of The<br />
Exumas island chain and get ready to come face to face<br />
with a swimming piggy!<br />
Originally introduced to the islands to keep the population<br />
fed, the clever pigs found out that they would be fed first<br />
if they swam out to meet the farmers when they arrived<br />
with their supper. Since then, it’s<br />
become a rite of passage<br />
to have a swim with<br />
the plucky porcine<br />
islanders.<br />
John Watling’s Distillery<br />
In the Caribbean, rum isn’t just important – it’s part of the<br />
very fabric of life. Its history is indelibly linked with the<br />
people of the Bahamas and the best way to honour them<br />
is by visiting one of the island’s premier distilleries.<br />
Set in a grand colonial-era house in<br />
Nassau, rum has been produced<br />
on site since 1789. Famous<br />
for their molasses-coloured<br />
Paradise Rum and the<br />
delicious cocktails it<br />
makes, taking a tour will<br />
bring the whole process<br />
to life. It’s the perfect<br />
place to visit and pick up a<br />
bottle.<br />
