Welcome to WikiProject Bahamas! This group was formed to better organize articles on the Bahamas in a spirit of cooperation.
Please note: The Bahamas are not located in the Caribbean Sea, but rather in the Atlantic Ocean. They are, however, a part of the West Indies and share many common attributes with the islands of the Caribbean.
Scope
[edit]This group includes within its scope all articles related to the Bahamas, its cities, geography, transportation, culture, history and so on. It aims to expand Wikipedia's resources on the Bahamas in a fair and accurate manner. All of these articles should be contained within the Category:Bahamas or one of its subcategories.
