Sailing & yachting in Bahamas

There's plenty of excellent pleasure cruising to be done in Bahamas. All this islands offer gorgeous waters and an endless array of uninhabited cays, inaccessible by other means. Even around the most popular islands you can drop anchor at some remote spot and enjoy the sun, swim in silent and snorkeling far from the shore.
If you want to really enjoy sailing and yachting, choose a cruise in a glass bottom boat during the day, dance under the stars on a dinner cruise, or charter a crewed boat for a couple of days of quiet and careless escape.
Competitive sailing, yachting and deep-sea fishing finds an ideal location in Bahamas Islands. Whether you are just watching or want to participate, a regatta is a beautiful and thrilling way to pass the day.

Grand Bahama Regatta

Each major island holds its own regatta, usually in late summer. The best can be found on Exuma, Long Island, Nassau (Paradise Island), and Freeport.
The Annual Grand Bahama Sailing Regatta, held in June, is a popular event for boating enthusiasts and for those who just want to watch the magnificent native sloops sail gracefully along Taino Beach. Even if trophies and cash prizes are awarded, perhaps the most important thing is the reputation to be "champion of Caribbean Sea".
The Bahamian islands are also places of a few noncompetitive sailing & yachting events, which bring boat enthusiasts and just-curious together...

Tours in Paradise

The Bahamas is a sailing paradise! Opportunities for yachting, sailing tours and snorkeling are available as well as sunset cruises and other beautiful settings.
Some of the world's most beautiful stretches of sea surround Grand Bahama Island, which is the reason why a high number of visitors arrive here by an old-fashioned way - by sailing into port. The island has seven marinas, many of them fully equipped with electricity hubs, waste-disposal units, and fuel stations.
Even if you are far from being a sailor you can still enjoy the island by boat. There are plenty of yachting & sailing tours available and some feature fine dining or beach parties.
