Frommer's Favorite Experiences

Sunset at the Cloister. Here, amid the reassembled remains of a 12th-century French stone monastery once owned by William Randolph Hearst, you can enjoy one of the most beautiful pink and mauve sunsets in all The Bahamas.

A Night at the Casino. Atlantis's casino -- the only one on Paradise Island -- is one of the world's most impressive and imaginatively decorated. Many visitors arrive on the island just to test their luck in this gaming destination. Once you're here, make it a point to check out the huge clusters of handblown glass arranged into amazing sculptures, conceived by American glass-blowing master Dale Chihuly. This casino contains at least four of his pieces, each one massive, hyper-fragile, awe-inspiring, and giving the impression of emanating their own light. Looking for a dining venue? The echoing interior passageway interconnecting the various parts of this widely flung resort is home to a medley of shops and restaurants, some of them among the finest in The Bahamas.
