The Island:
This beautiful haven offers pristine white sandy beaches, crystal clear turquoise waters, abundant sea life and friendly locals. It is located in the northern end of the Berry islands. There is a 9-hole golf course, a large hurricane protected marina, small grocery stores, local restaurants and a newly paved 5000 ft. airstrip. There are also twice daily flights from Nassau, and charters and shared charters from Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. Golf cart, car and boat rentals are available from Happy People (Elron Rolle). You can also buy fresh seafood from Herbert at the marina. This is an amazing vacation spot whether you want to kick back and relax or have fun in the sun.
Activities and Dining:
On the island you can go shelling and looking for sand dollars on the flats on the south side of the island at low tide. This beautiful beach is known as 'Bajito' among the Cuban Americans and 'Shell Beach' as the kids call it. It is worth a visit just to see it. You can also explore the caves and abandoned hotel on the north side, just a few minutes from the house. There are a few restaurants on the island that serve delicious Bahamian and International food. Enjoy conch fritters, or grouper fingers with a drink at the Rocky Hill Pool Bar and Reaturant at the Marina. Also Coolie Mae's in Bullock's Harbour serves delicious cracked conch. The Beach Club is another great place for breakfast or lunch. At certain times of the year you can partake in local festivals and celebrations. However, if you just want to relax, read a good book or nurse a tropical drink in paradise, this is the perfect place!
Fishing and Boating:
Don't miss a delicious lunch at Flo's Restaurant, finding the Blue Hole on Hoffman Cay and exploring the surrounding cays. Percy Darville is and excellent fishing guide to maneuver you through the flats to bonefish or take you deep sea fishing. There is fantastic snorkeling and sport fishing. Please note only Hawaiian slings may be used for spear fishing. You can expect to catch snapper, grouper, yellowtail, lobster and conch. Locals will clean for the heads, tails and tip. You can rent boats from Elron at happy People at the Marina.
