Go to The Abacos for an uncrowded environment where you can still have access to whatever level of accommodations and services you desire. Ecotourism is popular, and aficionados have revitalized exploration of Abacos' Caribbean pine forests, which are home to wild boar, wild horses, the rare Abaco parrot, and myriad other bird and plant life. Sea kayaking in pristine protected areas also provides a rewarding sense of adventure, and more conventional activities such as golf and tennis are available, too. But if you don't feel like doing anything at all, that's also a highly rated activity.
