  • The Berry Islands Fact Sheet
    THE BERRY ISLANDS FACT SHEET The Berry Islands are composed of a cluster of 30 mostly uninhabited cays, so it's not uncommon to stumble across a footprint-free beach or peaceful cove. With the abundance of privacy, these serene islands are a long known hideaway for the rich and famous. The Berry Islands are home to a number of spectacular dive sites, a 600-foot-wide blue hole and some of the most remarkable billfishing, making it the perfect destination for anglers and underwater adventurers. From pristine beaches and historical sites to renowned fishing and diving, visitors can expect to find tranquility and natural beauty around every corner. HISTORY The Berry Islands are believed to have been first settled in 1836 when Bahamas Governor William Colebrook established a settlement of emancipated slaves at Great Stirrup Cay. Comprised of 30 cays, The Berry Islands contained numerous natural resources that initiated plantations, hunting and settlements. The largest island, Great Harbour Cay, was developed in the 1960’s to be the ultimate getaway for the rich and famous. ABOUT THE BERRY ISLANDS • Town/Settlement: Bullocks Harbour, Great Harbour Cay • Size: 12 square miles • Population: Approximately 800 ACCOMMODATIONS Chub Cay Club – This private island paradise sits at the southern tip of The Berry Islands and at the edge of "The Pocket" of the ocean, where a variety of dolphins, wahoo, marlin, tuna and sailfish are often spotted.

  • Yachting in the Bahamas – July 2020
    YACHTING IN THE BAHAMAS – JULY 2020 As Covid-19 travel restrictions begin to ease, The Islands of The Bahamas have reopened to Canadian travellers. One of the first groups returning are yachters, and for good reason. The Bahamas offers boaters some of the most beautiful azure seas, lovely vistas and charming seascapes. Let’s face it; many people want to stay away from crowds and sailing on a private yacht is like your own private travelling bubble! And of course, for deep sea fishermen it is the big dream! With 100,000 square miles of crystal blue water delighted to be cruised across, The Bahamas is a premier yachting destination, comprised of 700 captivating Out Islands with pristine beaches. For those that think yachting is only for the ultra-wealthy, there are affordable ways to do it. For sure, if you wanted to buy your own yacht, you’d probably be right! But chartering a yacht for a week or two can be surprisingly reasonable. Here are just a few suggestions of the many perfect boating destinations in The Bahamas. The Berry Islands The Berry Islands are known for natural deep-water passages which have made the islands one of the leading cruise ship ports-of-call in The Bahamas. The surrounding waters offer dozens of uninhabited cays, miles of secluded swim-ashore beaches, and a multitude of magical harbours, all a big attraction to cruising boaters. Great Harbour Cay is the main island in the North Berry Islands chain – considered one of The Bahamas’ best-kept secrets. The island is seven miles long with only a few hundred residents.

  • 7 Day Itinerary Exumas BAHAMAS/ EXUMAS
    7 day itinerary Exumas BAHAMAS/ EXUMAS Best known for the captivating turquoise waters that surround them, the Exuma Islands offer endless quiet anchorages, sweeping sandbars, and white sand beaches that transport you to another world. This chain of 365 islands is part of the Out Islands of the Bahamas, but collectively they hold a much more laid-back vibe, and there’s something unique to be experienced on each of them. Here you’ll enjoy nature in its simplest form. With flawless coastlines, pristine reefs, and exclusive island surroundings, it’s a dream destination for those seeking the ultimate escape, from boaters and fishermen to divers, snorkelers, and kayakers. Local attractions of the Exuma Cays won’t disappoint. Visit the famed Thunderball Grotto, a cave seen in the James Bond film of the same name, and swim with the now-famous swimming pigs at Big Major’s Spot. Wildlife in the Exumas is plentiful, from the photogenic and surprisingly social nurse sharks at Compass Cay to the Allen’s Cay giant iguanas, fearsome-looking yet gentle creatures that welcome visitors who bring them gifts of vegetables. An elite offering of restaurants and famous nightlife hot spots can be found hidden among the islands, but these gems are very rare. Many of the Exuma Cays are private, some functioning as luxurious private-island resorts and others the ultra-exclusive homes to stars such as Johnny Depp, Tyler Perry, David Copperfield, and country singers Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. Whether you’re seeking adventure, seclusion, luxury, or relaxation, or a sampling of each, an Exumas yacht charter offer unequaled possibilities to satisfy your every desire.

According to Noel Curry, Abaco’s Officer in Charge, the young man attempt- ed to help a young lady swim to shore but she was swept away by a wave. He then fo- cused on getting himself to safety.
