Bahamas Factoid: The highest point in the Bahamas is Mount Alvernia on Cat Island, which is 63 meters (over 200 feet) high. Now that's a nice climb! You easily can walk the length and width of many of the smaller cays, which are usually pretty flat. If you do find a hill to climb, it will be worth it. You will be rewarded by some of the most beautiful views you have ever seen!
