The Abacos
The Abacos
The Abacos' calm, naturally protected waters, long admired for their beauty, have helped the area become the Bahamas' sailing capital. The islands' resorts are particularly popular with yachting and fishing enthusiasts because of the fine boating facilities available, among the best in the Bahamas. Man-O-War Cay remains the Bahamas' boatbuilding center; its residents turn out traditionally crafted wood dinghies as well as high-tech fiberglass craft. The Abacos play host annually to internationally famous regattas and to a half dozen game-fish tournaments.
