Island hopping and boating adventure
There are countless remote islands in and around the Abacos that feature beautiful beaches that are completely untouched, and pristine places to spend an afternoon snorkeling, sunbathing, and swimming. Bring a picnic lunch with you to make it an experience that lasts the entire day, or explore multiple islands in one day while honing your boating skills. Contact us for local providers.
Ahoy sailors!
The calm but steady winds of the Abacos make it an ideal place for sailors of all skill levels to hone and improve their skills while exploring the beautiful and rugged islands that surround us. Find secret coves, private beaches, or balmy headwinds winds while aboard a beautiful sailboat. Contact us for recommended sailboat rental services or to charter a guided sail if you’d rather relax and hand the reins to an experienced captain.
A new perspective on the waves
The Abacos are all about relaxing, but pair your vacation mode with a bit of healthy exercise by renting a sea kayak or paddle board. Paddle briskly around the bay and see starfish, conch, and schools of fish playing playfully in the waves from onboard your own kayak or paddleboard.
