Area code 242
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The area code (242) is the local telephone area code of The Bahamas. The (242) area code, or "(BHA)" was created during a split from the original (809) area code which was done on or around the date October, 1996.
When in The Bahamas, only the seven-digit number is required, but to call the Bahamas from anywhere within the North American Numbering Plan (the United States, Canada, etc) simply dial 1 242 followed by the subscriber's phone number.
