Exuma attractions -not only sun & beach
Whether it's action and adventure you're looking for, or total relaxation... Exuma have something waiting for you... There is so much to enjoy in paradise. Simply choose from one of the many Exuma area attractions and activities from the menu to the left to get a taste of what Peace and Plenty can offer you. Exuma has everything you expect from a tropical destination. Spectacular beaches, a variety of activities, perfect year-round weather, a casual laid back atmosphere and warm Bahamian hospitality. Visit historic sites, go kayaking in crystal-clear water, partake in underwater exploration and diving, try snorkeling or just lay back and enjoy island life. While enjoying your Bahamas vacation there are hundreds of activities on land and sea to choose from; sailing, windsurfing, parasailing, fishing, snorkeling and scuba diving, golf, photo tours, biking and hiking. Like the rest of the Bahamas, the Exuma Islands have gained fame as one of the premier scuba diving destinations in the world. The clear water offers enough reef dives, wall dives, and cave dives to satisfy all skill levels. One of the most popular sites is Sting Ray Reef, just offshore from Stocking Island. This shallow water dive is great for novices who want to see plenty of reef fish such as French grunts, snapper, and tangs. Sea turtles are also regular visitors to the area. The site was so named due to the abundance of sting rays buried in the sand up to their eyes! Another popular site is the Angelfish Blue Hole. This is primarily a spot for intermediate to advanced divers due to the nature of the currents in the hole. A "blue hole" is a sudden depression on the sea bottom, and many of these depressions lead to underwater cave systems. Angelfish is a true blue hole. It is in the opening of a tunnel under the island and is subject to a "flushing" action of the tide. Inside the cavern, the walls are completely encrusted with sponges, and the colors are limitless. Anglers are another group that flock to the area. Whether it's deep-sea fishing, reef fishing, bottom fishing or fly fishing, you will find adequate game to satisfy your style. Record numbers of marlin, sailfish and wahoo are caught in Exuma Sound, where the aqua-blue ocean drops 6,000 feet into the dark, cool feeding grounds of trophy-size fish. You can also toss in a line in Lake Victoria, a 2-acre lake that sits in the middle of George Town. George Town can serve as a jumping off point to other Exuma attractions. This bustling hub has plenty of shopping, either in boutiques or in the Straw Market, and plenty of restaurants where you can sample the local fare. Plan your trip around Junkanoo, the annual festival in late December that rivals Mardi Gras. Or visit during The Out Island Regatta, and watch as hundreds of ships of all shapes and sizes come here to race each other. Golfers can tee it up at the Four Seasons Resort Emerald Bay Golf Club, a Greg Norman design that is gaining the reputation as being one of the prettiest courses in the Bahamas, rivaling any in the Caribbean. The people of the islands are warm and inviting, more than willing to share their rich cultural heritage. |
