Abaco Islands Bahamas Caribbean

6/11/2012

The little known Abaco Islands in the Bahamas are simply a dream come true, passed, by the ravages of time and progress. Known as “The Sailing Capital of the World,” The Abacos’ number one activity is boating and sailing. Marinas here see the height of activity spring and autumn. But don’t rule out the excellent fishing, diving, snorkeling, water sports, and, of course, cultural attractions that round out The Abacos holiday experience all year long.
Abaco Islands
The 18th century saw the first settlers to the Abaco islands by pro-British colonists fleeing the US after the War of Independence ended in 1776. The first settlement was at Carleton, near what is now the major centre of Treasure Cay. Today the Abacos are vibrant. With excellent boating, fishing and scuba diving, The Abacos rank high among the tourist destinations in the Out Islands.

Abaco is the third most populous island in The Bahamas and bears a resemblance to New England from which it attracts so many of its visitors and winter residents. Marsh Harbour is the commercial centre located on Great Abaco. The first settlement on Abaco Was Carleton Point, located at the northern end of Treasure Cay a luxury resort development. Carleton was settled in 1783 by 600 Loyalists refugees from New York, fleeing the newly independent United States.
There are two types of beaches in The Islands Of The Bahamas-the activity beach and the secluded beach. In The Abacos, beaches offer the best of both, and in most instances, on the same beach.

The Abaco Club is definately worth a visit located at Winding Bay. It is emerging as a private club and residential development with a golf course and large beachfront and waterfront lots for sale, set in a pristine island setting.
