The Exuma National Land and Sea Park, the first land and sea park in the world established in 1959 and protected by The Bahamas National Trust, encompasses much of the coastline. The park is only accessible by boat. One of the major natural wonders and sightseeing destinations of the Bahamas, the park has an abundance of undersea life, reefs, blue holes and shipwrecks. Great Exuma
This is the capital, the centre of commerce and second largest settlement in The Exumas. This tranquil seaport village opens onto a 15-mile habor and is a favorite spot for yachters. It has a laid-back atmosphere and a couple of hotels and restaurants. There are dive centers, marinas, grocery store to stock up on supplies, gift shops and the outdoor straw market.
In George Town, take a walking tour. Visit the central straw market under the big African fig tree for some authentic Bahamian crafts, enjoy the architecture of the Government Administration Building or the 150 year old St. Andrews Anglican Church or stroll around Lake Victoria and absorb the local way of life.
From George Town you can take the short ferry trip to nearby Stocking Cay. The ten-minute journey across the sound takes you to an island of beautiful beaches, underwater caves to dive in, and rocky inlets to explore by snorkel. You can find sand dollars and starfish and spot rays and turtles. The few holiday homes do nothing to spoil the natural beauty, and you'll still be able to find a deserted beach in one of the many sheltered bays.
Little Exuma -- Tropic Of Cancer Beach
This graceful crescent of pale sand borders the phenomenally blue-green water along the coast of Little Exuma. The longest beach on the island, it is also the prettiest in the Exuma chain and you will probably have it all to yourself. The imaginary line that defines the northern extent of the tropics is said to run right along this beach.
The Exumas Shopping experience is generally limited to hotel boutiques and general establishments in George Town that mainly target the locals. One exception is The Straw Market—a series of five to ten stands along the main road into George Town offering several varieties of baskets, purses and other straw goods that come in unique Exumian designs and colors.
Watersports: The primary watersport in Exuma is snorkeling, which can be done off the beach, from a glassbottom boat or at one of the many cays. Stocking Island is a popular place for shelling, beachcombing and picnicking.
Diving: Diving enthusiasts from around the world believe The Exumas are one of the most spectacular places in all of The Islands Of The Bahamas to take in the beauty of the world beneath the ocean's surface. Vast beds of undisturbed coral reef teeming with brightly colored schools of fish of every variety can be seen surrounding The Exumas, in addition to the Austin Smith Wreck.
Golfing: Four Seasons Golf Course, an 18-hole championship golf course, designed by golf Legend Greg Norman, is set to become one of the world’s greatest ocean-side clubs. Six signature holes hug the perimeter of Emerald Bay’s scenic peninsula.
