At The Abaco Club, it’s a daily occurrence. Flippers Beach Bar, where breakfasts and lunches are made to order and served with an island smile, is part tiki hut, part sidewalk cafe, part casual bistro. Decidedly low-key, it’s the perfect spot to relax with family and friends and taste the many flavors of Abaco before beginning your day or setting off on your next adventure. On Wednesday evenings, Flippers comes alive to the sound of a local “rake ‘n’ scrape” band as club members and guests enjoy barbecue night, complete with dancing, beach bonfire and yummy s’mores for the kids. Evening cocktails and dinner are served in The Cliff House, an octagonal clubhouse that overlooks Winding Bay from high on the ridge at Ocean Point. There, the catch of the day will be just one of many delicious choices you’ll have as you watch the sun go down over the clear, blue water of the bay. Local favorites include fresh lobster, blackened grouper, and the ever-popular conch chowder. The main dining room pairs fairy-tale sunset views with outstanding island fare, while the Founders Room and the private Founders Garden provide the perfect place for a private cocktail and dinner reception. “Guest” chefs from Southworth’s other internationally recognized clubs make frequent appearances at The Abaco Club, bringing delightful new dishes with them, as well as fresh takes on old favorites. Before (or after) dinner, there’s always a lively good time to be had at the Cliff House bar, as well—or out on the poolside patio. This is come-as-you-are elegance, where the focus is on great food and good fun. 17 18 #1in The Bahamas The golf course at The Abaco Club was designed for adventure—and to be a thoroughly enjoyable test of golf for players of all abilities. The Club’s vision to create the world’s first Scottish-style “tropical links” course was beautifully realized here by renowned golf course architects Donald Steel and Tom Mackenzie, two Britons who incorporated their knowledge of the game’s links-golf roots into every hole you’ll play. The course’s designers were careful to give you several different ways to play each hole. Determining which route is best for your game (and the day’s wind conditions) is half the battle.

  • Save Guana Cay Ree Association Ltd and Others V the Queen and Others
    [2009] UKPC 44 Privy Council Appeal No 0013 of 2009 JUDGMENT Save Guana Cay Reef Association Ltd and others v The Queen and others From the Court of Appeal, Bahamas before Lord Hope Lord Scott Lord Rodger Lord Walker Lord Collins JUDGMENT DELIVERED ON 17 November 2009 Heard on 7, 8, and 9 July 2009 Page 1 Appellant Respondent Ruth Jordan (Instructed by Simons James Dingemans QC Muirhead & Burton) Tom Poole (Instructed by Charles Russell LLP) Hugh Small QC Robert Adam (Instructed by Latham & Watkins) Page 2 LORD WALKER Introduction 1. This appeal is concerned with an attempt to halt a large-scale development of the north-west part of Great Guana Cay (“the Cay”), an island north of Great Abaco on the northern edge of the Bahamas archipelago. In the course of the litigation some additional issues, including an issue as to apparent judicial bias, have arisen. 2. The Bahamas are known throughout the world for their natural beauty. It is also well known that their rich natural resources, and especially their coral reefs, are at risk from indiscriminate development. There is an admirable explanation of the background to this appeal in the judgment of the Rt Honourable Dame Joan Sawyer, the President of the Court of Appeal, which I gratefully adopt (paras 11 to 13): “The Bahamas is a country of 701 islands, cays and reefs which stretches in an arc from approximately 58 miles southeast of the east coast of Florida in the United States of America to just north of Hispaniola. It is separated from Florida by the Gulf Stream and from the Greater Antilles by the Old Bahama Channel.
