Bahamas Yacht Charter Destinations

Marsh Harbor and the Abacos. The main charter port, often referred to as the world capital of sailing, is Marsh Harbor in the Abacos. The the majority of sailing boats are berthed here. From Abaco charterers can easily access the beautiful string of sandy cays just to the east: Man-O-War Cay, Treasure Cay, Fowl Cay, Green Turtle Cay. You will see the famous lighthouse of Hope Town, and head to Pelican Cays National Park with its amazing coral and sea life.

Freeport and Grand Bahama Island. Freeport is a modern, planned city with all of the amenities, one of the reasons that Grand Bahama is the second most visited island in the Bahamas. It boasts world class resorts and modern amenities. But Grand Bahama still offers deserted beaches and pristine nature, including the famous underwater cave systems situated at the Lucayan National Park.

Nassau, New Providence Island and Paradise Island. Motor yachts often find Nassau and Paradise Island a great charter destination, as it offers great shopping, world class resorts, restaurants and a large casino. Nassau is the capital of the Bahamas, and is linked by bridge to Paradise Island.
