While Nassau and Grand Bahama Island are popular destinations while chartering the Bahamas, there's a lesser-known but equally enchanting destination that yachters absolutely adore: Great Guana Cay. This island is synonymous with pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and a relaxed lifestyle that captivates every visitor.
Great Guana Cay's well-marked channels and calm waters make it the perfect place to take your motor yacht charter.
It offers multiple anchorage spots, where you can drop anchor and explore. Fishers Bay and Bakers Bay are among the popular choices, offering good holding and stunning views.
This is a renowned stopover for vacationers exploring the scenic waters of the Abacos Islands in the Bahamas. Orchid Bay is a full-service marina that provides a harmonious blend of convenience and luxury.
The marina is surrounded by natural beauty, providing breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. The proximity to local eateries as well as the island's stunning beaches, makes Orchid Bay Marina an irresistible luxury yacht charter destination.
When it comes to beaches, Great Guana Cay doesn't disappoint. In fact, its beaches are some of the most pristine in the Bahamas. The expansive stretch of white sand and crystal-clear water at Grabbers Bed, Bar & Grill offers an ideal locale to relax, swim, or picnic.
Fancy some snorkeling? Head over to the reef systems that skirt the island. If fishing is more your speed, the surrounding waters are rich with an assortment of marine life.
Experience the underwater world with Dive Guana, a popular diving center that offers everything from snorkeling excursions to full PADI certification courses.
One of the world's longest barrier reefs, it offers an underwater playground teeming with marine life.
Looking for a souvenir? The local gift shops offer an assortment of handcrafted items, island apparel, and local art.
Perched on a bluff overlooking the azure waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Nipper’s offers panoramic views of the breathtaking sunsets. It’s a vibrant, colorful space filled with a delightful mix of rustic Bahamian décor and modern amenities. It also has a small swimming pool for children and is pet-friendly- making it perfect for those chartering with little ones, or furry ones!
Nipper’s serves a range of dishes from Bahamian classics to international favorites. It offers a wide variety of freshly-caught seafod, including grouper, snapper, and lobster. We recommend the conch salad, a classic local dish that is zesty and refreshing.
For those arriving on the weekend, make sure you visit on Sunday for the famous pig roast where you can enjoy a succulent meat dish on the beach with a live music performance.
Whether you're looking for an action-packed vacation or just want to unwind on some of the Bahamas' most beautiful beaches, be sure to speak to your preferred charter broker to incorporate a visit to Great Guana Cay into your next superyacht charter.
