| How Far Is The Bahamas From California |
How Far is Too Far?
Let's get down to brass tacks. The Bahamas is a lovely archipelago, but it's nestled comfortably in the Atlantic Ocean, a good chunk away from the Pacific Coast's shining star, California. We're talking about a distance of roughly 2,355 miles. To put that into perspective, it's about the same distance as driving from New York City to San Francisco – without stopping for coffee.
QuickTip: Skim for bold or italicized words.
No Swimmin' There, Buddy
Now, I know what you're thinking: "Hey, I'm a strong swimmer! I'll just take a dip and be there in no time!" Slow down, Aquaman. The Pacific and Atlantic Oceans are separated by a rather large landmass called Central and South America. It's like trying to swim from your bathtub to the next town over.
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
Flying is Your Friend
Your best bet to experience the Bahamas' white-sand beaches and crystal-clear waters is by air. There are several airlines offering flights from major California airports to Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas. Just remember to pack your sunscreen and a good book – the flight might take a while.
QuickTip: Keep going — the next point may connect.
