Starting just 35 miles southeast of Nassau is a chain of some of the prettiest and least visited island in The Bahamas; the Exumas. Numbering more than 350, these principally uninhabited islands start with Sail Rocks to the north and stretch for more than 100 miles down the west side of the Exuma Sound, finally terminating with the big islands of Great Exuma and Little Exuma on the southern end. Within the chain are dozens of excellent anchorage's, hundreds of pure white undisturbed beaches and seemingly endless lush coral gardens.  

Day 1)
Board in Nassau or Paradise Island and meet your crew.  Enjoy a smooth daysail across the Yellow Banks into the stunning waters of the Exumas.  Arrive at Allan's Cay by sunset and explore the nearby beaches, meet the large population of  wild Bahamian Iguanas which come out to greet the visitors. Good snorkeling reefs and fishing around this collection of small island and reefs.

Day 2)
Cruise to Hawksbill Cay. Delight in the beautiful expanse of beaches and climb the large hill for a panoramic view of the anchorage. Walk the trails to explore ruins of Loyalist plantations dating from 1783-1830.

Day 3)
Cruise to Warderick Wells, headquarters of the Exuma Land and Sea Park and be amazed at the awesome display of watercolors and sand banks. Visit the headquarters and take advantage of their walking trails, including a Sperm Whale skeleton on the beach. Snorkeling this area will be rewarding, as you discover a full spectrum of  tropical fish and marine life.

Day 4 )
Start today with a cruise to Staniel Cay and visit the quaint settlement sprinkled with brightly colored houses. The highlight of this area is "Thunderball Grotto", where snorkelers can visit the site of such movie hits as "Thunderball" and "Splash"! A fine dinner or drinks at the Staniel Cay Yacht Club is always a great Out Island experience.
Amazing cliffs ready to be scaled reward you with fantastic views of the Exuma Sound's waves crashing against the shore, and private secluded beaches can be easily reached by foot. It's also a tradition to visit nearby Big Major's Spot and feed the not-so-wild swimming hogs!
Day 5)
Cruise to the Pipe Creek area and explore the multitude of interconnecting islands, rocks and sand bars. The fishing, exploring and snorkeling opportunities will satisfy all.

Day 6)
Turn North back toward Nassau or continue down-island like to Georgetown, exploring Black Point on the way. Our return cruise North will sail us through the narrow cuts between cays that provide stunning views of the islands' beaches and coast lines.

Sail on the majestic Exuma Sound side of the cays, where we can often spot migrating Humpback whales playing in the waves. As we approach Norman's Cay, famous for the ruins of an ex-drug lord's compound, we will sail by a submerged crashed cargo plane in the bay, ideal for snorkeling. Perfect beaches and various caves along the shoreline provide options to explore, or just simply relax. Enjoy dinner ashore at MacDuff's, a local flavored bar and restaurant quite popular with the yachties.

Day 7)
Again, wake to breakfast in the beautiful Exumas, and prepare to bid this magical chain of islands farewell. Enjoy the day of sailing across the

Yellow Banks, and realize that next year you'll want to spend even longer exploring and indulging! By nightfall, we will have returned to Nassau Harbor; stroll back into the nightlife or enjoy your evening onboard.
