📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

The Bahamas is a tropical archipelago off Florida's east coast, comprising about 3,000 islands across roughly 30 populated islands. Nassau on New Providence is the capital and home to about half the population.

  • Junkanoo, a major Bahamian festival, is a street carnival held on Boxing Day (December 26) and New Year's Day (January 1).
  • Participants 'rush' through towns, especially Nassau, wearing spectacular, disposable costumes made from crepe paper.
  • The music combines African rhythms with loud brass and cowbells.
  • Costumes are disposed of in the streets following the celebration, which can be viewed as unique souvenirs.
  • While Bahamians are generally good-natured, visitors are expected to show respect.
