Episode 1: Blue Holes and Caves
- Now playing
- Jan 18, 2016
Hidden away beneath the surface of the Bahamian archipelago is a magical world millions of years in the making. The caves and blue holes of the Bahamas house some of the most spectacularly beautiful geological formations in the world. The species that reside in their watery depths are biological anomalies that thrive in dark waters saturated with hydrogen sulfide gas and low in oxygen. Above ground, the variety of bats and other creatures that make their homes in the caves are astounding.
Episode 2: Mangroves
- Jan 19, 2016
Penetrate the tangle of Mangrove roots growing out of swampy muck and reveal a nursery that houses fish and invertebrates until they are big enough and smart enough to compete on the coral reefs. Up to 90% of the species of the Bahamas spend some part of their lives here. This is where baby sharks learn to hunt and young lobsters learn how to hide. The roots of these salt-water tolerant shrubs are also home for some remarkable creatures: from the tiny seahorse to the resilient tree crab. Even the iconic flamingo gathers here to feed on the crustaceans that give them their pinkish hue.
Episode 3: The Sand Flats
- Jan 21, 2016
Beyond the iconic and pristine white beaches of the Bahamas, the sand flats are home to fierce iguanas, camouflaging stingrays, and beautiful bottlenose dolphins. Much of this sand is the surprising waste product of one resident. Parrotfish nibbling on coral produce one tonne of sand per fish every year. Sand here is so ubiquitous, that some creatures have evolved to hide in plain sight to survive. Others, like stingrays, use incredible electro sensitivity to locate the prey hidden away in the sand.
Episode 4: Coral Reefs
- Jan 20, 2016
The seascape created by the Bahamian coral reefs and the creatures, which feed and hide here, is one of the most diverse and colourful on the planet. Every day the creatures here must emerge ready to forage and stake claim to their share of the reef. Schools of cleaner fish must risk foul fates in the mouths of the fish they preen. The long and slender trumpet fish becomes an expert at camouflage. Experience day and night on a coral reef colony, and find out who is best hidden away when the sun goes down and the come sharks out.
Episode 5: Open Water
- Jan 22, 2016
Open water makes up most of the area of the Bahamas and houses its most elusive species. Rarely seen species like the oceanic white tip shark, sperm whale and even the reclusive blainesville’s beaked whale make this area their home. The creatures that survive here must be able to swim far, fast, or deep as their search food, mates and safe haven, is perpetual. Schools of fish and flocks of birds exploit every advantage in this environment.
Episode 6: Wonderland
- Jan 25, 2016
The 700 islands of the Bahamas harbour some of the most spectacular underwater wildlife in the world. Under water, they claim the deepest canyon, the steepest cliffs and hidden geological treasures. The interplay between sun, sand, water and coral has created unique ecosystems to feed and shelter animals distinctively adapted to survive in the Wonderland that is the Bahamas.

Overview

Bahama Blue is the Bahamas beyond the beaches. Explore worlds where everything is eating…or being eaten, but fierce competition gives way to playful and funny creatures, just staking their claim. This a magical place where plants are sprinkled with shimmering dust and seahorses feed, almost without fear. Bahama Blue is a six-part television series that explores the islands of the Bahamas in a search of wildlife through the lens of cinematographers Andy Brandy Casagrande IV, Mark Rackley and Sean White. Captured in 4k cinematography, combined with intimate aerials, extraordinary macro photography and signature ‘tide lapses’, this is the Bahamas you’ve never seen before and will want to share. Created by award-winning producers Ian Herring and Maija Leivo of Parallax Film Productions, Bahama Blue premieres in Canada May 6, 2015 on the Love Nature channel.
