Abaco holidays – Charming colonial villages and gorgeous coral beaches
Abaco holidays are based on a narrow 120-mile string of unspoilt islands in the northern Bahamas, surrounded by beautiful sheltered aquamarine water and coral reefs. A feature of holidays in Abaco is the number of charming tiny coral islands or cays that surround the two major islands of Great Abaco and Little Abaco. The Abaco Islands have just 12,000 inhabitants, many of whom work in fishing and boatbuilding. Abaco holidays feature quaint sleepy colonial villages with plenty of history and a marked resemblance to New England. Abaco holidays have an appealing laid back atmosphere and a wonderful all-year-round climate. Bicycles are fine for leisurely exploration of pretty churches, charming local stores, old-world villages, unspoilt forests and the gorgeous coastline. Abaco beaches like Great Guana Beach, Green Turtle Cay Beach and Treasure Cay Beach are truly spectacular and considered some of the finest in the world. Holidays in Abaco offer very pleasant low-key tourism in relatively small family friendly hotels or cottages. Abaco holiday nightlife is pleasantly relaxed and low-key with occasional live music, largely limited to local bars and the hotels.
