Things to Do on Water

From Allan's Cay in the north to Hog Cay in the south, The Exuma Islands have a lot to offer both above and below the surface of the water. There are thousands of miles of Invitingly soft, white-sand beaches stretching along the length of the chain, cays and inlets, for relaxing or exploring by foot and by boat. The shallow, crystal-clear waters provide one of the prettiest settings for snorkeling in the entire Bahamas. Fishing and diving are the mainstay, but many boating competitions are also held here. There's the Out Island Regatta in Great Exuma in April, the largest regatta in the country, and the New Year’s Day Cruising Regatta in Staniel Cay.
