Abaco Island of the Bahamas.

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 harbors 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, snorkeling 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 eco-tourist.

The rich shallow reefs of the northern Abaco Islands and cays are especially popular with snorkelers and beginning divers of all ages looking for a relaxed way to see friendly fish and a little history. Scattered sunken cannons lie on the reef among the ballast stones in Spanish Cannon. The southern Abaco Islands offer the lush, shallow coral gardens of Pelican Cays Land and Sea Park as well as the exotic moray eels of Mermaid Reef and elaborate elkhorn and brain coral of Hope Town Reef.
