Bahamas
The Abaco Islands are a sailing and boating universe. The major islands of this small archipelago are Great and Little Abaco, with the off-lying cays of Elbow Cay, Man-O-War Cay, Green Turtle Cay, Guana Cay, Stranger's Cay, Umbrella Cay and Walker's Cay completing the string.
As the largest and least-explored island in the islands Of The Bahamas, Andros offers a wide variety of activities for just about everyone. This 2,300-square-mile island paradise is not only known as the bone fishing capital of the world, but also boasts the second-largest reef in the Northern Hemisphere and is home to the oldest dive resort on the planet.
Being the closest of The Islands Of The Bahamas to the coast of Florida (you can see the glow of Miami Beach at night) has made The Bimini Islands a popular destination for American visitors. But it's more than just location that makes it a hot attraction. The waters surrounding The Bimini Islands are known the world over for top big-game fishing.
Miles of glistening pink and white sand beaches, serene colonial villages and rolling acres of pineapple plantations make Eleuthera Island an island of the most casual sophistication; and Harbour Island reminds many visitors of a miniature Bermuda with its Georgian architecture and fabulous beaches of coral pink sand.
The Exuma Islands are located in the middle of The Islands Of The Bahamas, yet remain mostly undisturbed. The Exuma Islands are a collection of some 365 cays and islands stretching over 120 miles, supported at the southern end by two main islands, Great Exuma and Little Exuma. The main attractions for visitors to The Exumas are its world-class sport fishing and boating.
Grand Bahama Island is an ecological wonder waiting to be discovered. Endless beaches, emerald green water, charming fishing villages and enchanting marine life are just some of the Island's attractions that make this a unique destination.
Come visit the jewel of The Islands Of The Bahamas -- Nassau/Paradise Island. As the cultural, social, political and economic centre of The Bahamas, it is the most visited destination in the islands. Nassau/Paradise Island has much to offer visitors. There are more sights and activities here than you can experience in one trip.
If you're looking for total escape from the crowds, something different from the everyday and a full menu of the unexpected, you might want to become "a collector" of our extraordinary Out Islands.
