Join WTA on a trip to the Bahamas! A tropical paradise bursting with beauty, amazing weather, culture, and great hospitality. The Bahamas has amazing white sand beaches and is also famous for its pink sand beach. The natives believe the light pink sand is released from thousands of broken coral pieces, shells, and calcium carbonate material, which is overtaken by foraminifera (small sea creatures with red and pink shells). The coral formations found in the Bahamas are surrounded by an incredible palette of deep blue and turquoise waters. With its extraordinary natural beauty, you will be awed by the diversity in the Bahamian culture, a perfect blend of African and European influence. Be ready to give your taste buds a new experience, with fresh seafood that is varied as it is delicious. Europe, Africa, and South American inspiration permeate the food across the islands. The Bahamian people are full of kindness and generosity, and knowing them will make your journey even more special and memorable. Goombay is the official music and dance of the Bahamas and will mesmerize you with its rhythm. Goombay is a musical method of storytelling and dancing, with a tropical calypso-style melody,
