The island boasts the greatest botanical and marine life diversity than any other island in the Bahamas and possesses the third largest barrier reef in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The marine biosphere of <strong>Andros Island<\/strong> is truly astonishing, an abundance of mangrove swamps, ocean craters, shallow sands and tidal streams form a rich and prosperous marine life. The island&#8217;s sprawling coral reef is made up of oceanic craters and vertical caves creating a rich dark and light blue ocean.
