i dont understand what you mean by the 21 districts, there are 25inhabitated islands althought there are about 700 islands and cays and over 2,000 is you include rocks too, the bahamas is made of limestone, and have about 303,000 inhabitants. The captial is Nassau New Providence, the largest industry is toursim. We eat a lot of seafood, conch is i think what we are most proud of. (im bahamian yea :P) About 60% or more of the population rely on tourism both directly and indirectly. Junkanoo is a festival that the bahamas is most know for. although the origin isnt completely known, it is believed that it was a african tradition named after a man call Jon kanoe (there are variations in the spelling of his name too), Our national music is calyso and junakoo. You can find more information about the bahamas online. i think there is a bahamas.com but its pretty easy to find the information i think you want online.

properly the hurricanes have broken maximum of freeport(thats why i moved to florida)and u can flow to the coastline or u can stroll around port lucaya or u can flow swimming with the dolphins, or scuba diving. however the bazaar is totally closed down, so u shouldn't flow there.and if u prefer to be on the coastline and not using a bunch of human beings u could hire a scooter or some thing and flow east to bishops resturant..they have solid nutrition and no person is ever on the coastline and taxis r ore high priced then u . s . a . via fact r gas costs r bigger. and ideal around the line from port lucaya is a appropriate motel called our lucaya...i dont understand with regard to the hidden expenses port taxes..properly we dont pay no taxes what so ever. have exciting !! and u could flow to hen nest in west end and ask for lova and rosey..nutrition is goood
