Funnily enough, when I lived in Nassau it wasn't in Europe.  I've heard about continental drift, but buggar me if New Providence hasn't also grown very very substantially in size.

I was also told that the "PokerStars Caribbean Adventure" is not actually in the Caribbean either!

However, Wikipedia seems to disagree:

I guess I just had that in my head because it isn't in the Caribbean Sea.

The Bahamas is sort of the artificial barrier between the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.  I would have said it was in the Caribbean myself, like I believe the Bahamians would.
