Here’s the best part: you can turn this geography quirk into a lifelong adventure challenge. Challenge yourself to visit a different Bahamian island every summer—start with Bimini for the Hemingway vibe, then hop to Exuma for the swimming pigs.
Or, book a last-minute flight on a whim. Seriously, airline apps often have deals under $100 round trip. You could be ordering conch fritters two hours from now. That’s not a fantasy—that’s a Tuesday.
