About 

Bahamas

Known as one of the most popular Caribbean destinations with over 700 islands and 2,400 cays, the Bahamas is the perfect tropical vacation spot. The Bahamas are so beautiful that American Astronaut Scott Kelly named the islands “the most beautiful place in space” before sharing photos on Twitter of the Bahamas from space. You can find out what makes the islands so special when you sail across the waters on our Bahamas yacht charters.

The capital city of The Bahamas is Nassau, which has a high-energy type of vibe. The town itself was originally called Charles Town before being burned to the ground and rebuilt in 1684 by the Spanish. Once it was rebuilt, it was called Nassau, and today it is home to 70% of the population of the Bahamas. Although Nassau is magical, what makes the Bahamas incredibly unique is that each of its islands has its personality and attractions with some of the world’s best scuba diving, fishing, sailing, boating, and dining shopping experiences. With Nassau yacht charters, you can get a whole new perspective on the capital city.

Two of those unique experiences include the Exumas and Abacos. The Exumas are a chain of 365 cays spread over 100 miles. Known as paradise, these cays are home to sapphire waters, white-sand beaches, deserted cays, and the famous Big Major Cay, also known as Pig Beach. Admire the natural beauty of the land with a boat charter in the Bahamas. It is probably one of the only places in the world where you can go swimming with wild pigs. Then there is Abacos, another chain of islands for travelers looking to relax and unwind. The islands are a true heaven on earth location for boaters, sailors, snorkelers, divers, and fishermen. Whatever island you choose to spend your time on, our Bahamas catamaran charters are sure to make a lasting impression.
