Day 1: Nassau to Harbour Island
Arrive at your luxury Bahamas motor yacht to be welcomed onboard by your charter-savvy crew for the week. Once settled, embark towards Harbor Island and enjoy your first beautifully prepared lunch onboard whilst underway and getting to know the crew. Once settled in the marina come late afternoon, venture to the famed Pink Sands Beach for sundowners and to experience what is one of the most serene sights in the Bahamas.
Tonight, you will have the option to step ashore to sample the local cuisine, or relax onboard and indulge in your chef’s Bahamian delights as you plan tomorrow's adventures with the Captain.
Day 2: Harbour Island to Eleuthera
This morning, wake early to delicious whiffs of a continental breakfast on the aft-deck. Once fuelled up and ready for a day of on-water-exploration, begin your cruise under the Bahamian sun to Eleuthera. Scale this islands coastline, dropping the anchor in a secluded bay for your morning swim before moving onto your lunch time anchorage and watersports haven.
While away the hours soaking up the sun on the voluminous sundeck of your Bahamas motor yacht and - for the adventurous - exploring away from the yacht on one of the many water toys. This evening, indulge in a multi-course meal on the aft-deck, delicately presented by your talented chef.
Day 3: Eleuthera to Warderick Wells
Home to more beaches than moorings, you are sure to find your own secluded slice of paradise at Warderick Wells. Following a lengthy morning cruse into the heart of the enchanting Exuma Cays, plunge into the tourmaline seas – or for a little tradition, tender ashore and hike to the top of Boo Boo Hill and leave an engraved memento (only natural materials accepted!).
The Exumas are known for their underwater utopia which will become apparent when you dip below the surface to unveil a serene snorkelling scene. This evening, watch the sun dip below the horizon from the comfort of your foredeck whilst swinging at anchor. Again, enjoy another outstanding meal by your yacht chef.
Day 4: Warderick Wells to Staniel Cay
This morning, raise the anchor and venture south through the enchanting Exuma Cays towards Staniel Cay, dropping the anchor off multiple idyllic islands to peacefully soak up the surroundings, explore mini-islands and swim in sapphire seas. Your crew are on hand to prepare the water toys when you require them and with an unrivalled knowledge of the surrounding area, are happy to explore alongside you.
Staniel Cay – one of the oldest marinas in the Bahamas – is a family run yacht club offering dockage for yachts up to 170’. Step ashore and immerse yourself in the laid-back atmosphere of Bahamian island life over a drink. Since the restaurant and bar is often voted the best in the Bahamas, we suggest making a dinner reservation at the Staniel Cay Yacht Club well in advance.
Day 5: Staniel Cay to Big Major Cay
Wake up early for the quintessentially Bahamian day you have been waiting for. Enjoy a continental breakfast on the deck as you prepare to move underway to the famous islet of Big Major Cay where the swimming pigs await. Here, we also encourage you to brave a rendezvous with friendly nurse sharks which encircle the yacht for an incredible experience. However, should you prefer it, tender around the corner to Little Farmer’s Cay where there is a great opportunity to swim with turtles.
Day 6: Big Major Cay to Highbourne Cay
With so much to offer charterers, Big Major Cay is a difficult one to leave. Therefore, we suggest spending most of the day at anchor and exploring from here via tender. For the James Bond fans amongst you, round the headland and approach Thunderball Grotto; a natural wonder and snorkeller’s paradise.
Come late afternoon, make the short trip to Highbourne Cay Marina for the night where there is an excellent restaurant we highly recommend stepping ashore for. Indulge in platter of fresh seafood, making the most of the fresh island food before star gazing from the comfort of your yacht.
Day 7: Highbourne Cay to Allen Cay
Enjoy a lazy morning onboard or strolling along talcum-sand beaches, unwinding following an adventuresome couple of days. Once settled onboard your Captain will begin the short journey to Allen Cay; home to the Bahama’s wild iguanas.
Spend the afternoon plunging into the tourmaline waters, venturing away from the yacht on the water toys and soaking up the sun on the deck. Enjoy a sundowner of choice with Bahamian delights as the sun dips below the horizon, before settling down for a final celebratory multi-course meal onboard.
Day 8 - Disembark in Nassau
This morning, awaken to the smell of a delicious final breakfast wafting through the interior. Plunge into the Bahamian waters off the stern of your yacht before raising the anchor and embarking on your final cruise to Nassau where you will disembark the yacht and say farewell to your fabulous crew.
