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. Somewhere in this 120-mile necklace of islands and often uninhabited cays and beaches, you’re sure to find the ideal private spot for some chilled champagne and a good book.
The Abaco Islands’ sheltered harbours create a haven for yachtsmen and the slumber-struck alike. Here, colonial towns are gems of New England architecture waiting for those who love to roam secluded villages and taste a bit of history. For the action and adventure prone, surfing, diving, snorkelling and spectacular fishing await, as well as plenty to interest the nature lover, such as the Abaco forest, flora and fauna -- even special resorts for the ecotourist.
When visiting The Abaco Islands prepare yourself for some fun water adventures. Whether you're looking to try something new or enjoy a favourite water activity, your options are plentiful. Everything from snorkelling, diving, waterskiing to windsurfing is at your disposal. You'll also find that most larger hotels can set you up with everything you need for your desired activity.
