Sailing vacations in the Abaco Islands are one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Bahamas, and for good reason. With their exquisite beauty, variety of activities, and convenient location amid so many beautiful islands in the Caribbean, it’s no wonder visitors travel by a yacht charter to the Abaco Islands time and time again.
When and how to trip to Abaco to rent a boat there?
When visiting Great Abaco, the most convenient way to get to the island is to fly into Marsh Harbour Airport, so keep that in mind when booking your Abaco sailing trip. You can also conveniently add transportation to and from the marina to your final booking. From our experience the best time to visit is January through April to avoid peak hurricane seasons in the middle of summer through the fall.

How Long Should You Hire a Boat in Abaco, Bahamas?
In the Bahamas there are several options when it comes to how long you are hiring a boat in Abaco, Bahamas. Some choose a daily yacht rental in Abaco, meaning they rent a boat for a few hours during one day of their trip, and others like to choose a multi-day rental for 3-6 days of their vacation. But even though there are benefits to renting a boat charter in Abaco for a smaller amount of time, such as if you want to tour the islands by boat during a long weekend trip to the Bahamas, we still recommend a weekly boat rental in Abaco to take advantage of everything the islands have to offer.

One Week Itinerary Sailing the Bahamas from Great Abaco
The Great Abaco Islands in the Bahamas are some of the most beautiful and have plenty of opportunities for both fun and relaxation on your trip to the Caribbean. For this one-week sample itinerary, you’ll be flying into the Abaco Islands and chartering your yacht there before sailing the Bahamas and ending the trip in Nassau.
Start off your adventure by arriving in Marsh Harbour and beginning your journey through the Abacos. After exploring the town on land for a few hours, head to the marina and set sail on one of our great Marsh Harbour boat rentals for the trip of a lifetime.
Your first stop is Treasure Cay Beach, perhaps the most gorgeous beach on the island of Abaco. You can sail here from the harbor on your first day and enjoy the sparkling waters and soft sands with the rest of your group or loved ones.
After some time spent leisurely on the beach, it’s time for the real adventure to begin. Leave behind the gem that is Treasure Cay and set course up the Sea of Abaco to admire Whale Cay on the way to your next stop, historic Green Turtle Cay. Take a golf cart tour of the island and admire the sites, including New Plymouth, or go deep sea fishing, if your boat rental allowed you to add fishing equipment to your reservation.
The next day, head to Great Guana Cay to have lunch at the delicious Blue Water Grill and go reef diving to see some amazing wildlife. Stop by Dickies Cay for a cool shipwreck and Sandy Cay for the largest stand of Elkhorn Coral over the next couple of days.
The final days of your boating vacation by Abaco yacht charter will be enjoying the scenery of Harbour Island and swimming around Rose Island before you make your way to Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, to disembark.
Since this is a unique itinerary that suggests to start from Great Abaco and end when you completed allthings to do in Nassau, we suggest planning for a bit longer of a trip to give yourself a day or two to explore Great Abaco before you board your yacht charter and a couple of days on land in Nassau before you fly home. This way, you can see what the most famous Bahamas islands have to offer both on land and at sea for a truly fulfilling vacation. And don’t forget: there are so many other Bahamian destinations to explore by boat rental in the Bahamas, including the exciting things to do in Bimini Islands that you can access from Miami or Fort Lauderdale!
