[S 8980] View of submarine sand dunes on the Bahama Bank. Bahama Bank sand dunes. Aerial view of submarine sand dunes on the Bahama Bank, an extremely shallow region of the Caribbean Sea. There are over 700 islands in the Bahamas, where parts of the bank rise above the surface. In some places, the water is so shallow it is possible to wade from one island to another, but there are areas where the ocean plunges down to depths of over 8 kilometres.
