Bahamas Bareboat Charter Map

Just try and imagine... 

Imagine the perfect post card. Looking out on the ocean. Blues and greens melding seamlessly together. Endless white sandy beaches. Seabed that takes your breath away and beautiful islands which make you feel like you are the first to ever set foot on them. 200 km of island paradise, and in the center of it all, one of the largest protected marine parks in the world. And almost only accessible to you by boat. Great news! You are on a Navtours sailboat and this is all within your reach. You move with the speed of the wind, as free as a bird.   Your main task for today? Name the next island you find! 

The Exumas archipelago in the Bahamas is a sailor's paradise. You can begin your trip from Nassau, Staniel Cay or Georgetown on Great Exuma island and then decide to sail in the deep blues of the Atlantic Ocean or in the serene shallows and beautiful sandy bottoms of the lagoon.

Our New Bases in Nassau, Where the Fun Begins

This book tells the tale of a young adventurous couple who decided to pack it all in and set sail for the Bahamas. A short year before, neither one had ever set foot on a sail boat. Armed with courage and fuelled by their dreams, they hauled up the anchor in Quebec and set off on a 5-year journey to discover the paradise which is the Bahamas.

You can try bone fishing at Little Harbour, stroll the kong stretch of sands at Great Guana Cay or find out why Treasure Cay is voted one of the world’s most beautiful beaches.

  • Sailing conditions

The Bahamas enjoys trade winds year-round between 5-20 knots, which provide steady, warm temperatures.

Between September and May, the temperatures cool slightly to 69-75ºF, with the southern islands being warmer than the northern islands. The winder are stronger and blow from the northwest. The rest of the year, temperatures are between 80ºF and 84ºF.

While reconstruction efforts continue in the Abacos following the devastation caused by hurricane Dorian in 2019, Navigare is excited and proud to be a part of the recovery with a new charter base opened in 2021.

The Navigare base is located in Marsh Harbor on site at the Conch Inn Hotel and Marina , only 10 minutes from the Leonard Thompson Airport.

Request confirmation, terms and conditions, charter experts, llc terms & conditions.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (“ Terms ”) CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS AS WELL AS A SECTION GOVERNING THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF DISPUTES. THESE TERMS ALSO CONTAIN A LEGALLY BINDING RELEASE, WAIVER OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK. By creating a username, a login, clicking submit, using the services of Charter Experts, LLC d/b/a Virgin Island Sailing® (“ Broker ) or by accessing Broker’s website, you agree that you have read, and acknowledge your acceptance of these Terms. The Terms are subject to change at any time without notice at Broker’s sole discretion. Additionally, any transaction for which you have made payment shall be governed by the form of Terms in effect at the time of such payment notwithstanding any subsequent changes hereto.

If you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring a Charter (as that term is defined in Section 1 below) for more than just yourself, all references below to “Charterer” or “you” (and derivations thereof) shall be read to mean you on behalf of yourself and each individual within your group for whom you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring Charter.

These Terms shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer. To the extent they cannot be so construed, then in the event of any direct conflict between these Terms and any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer (including but not limited to the agreement executed by Charterer for a Charter Reservation (as that term is defined in Section 1 below), these Terms shall prevail.

  • Prepaid Charter Reservations . Typically, Broker negotiates charter rates in advance with the yacht owner or charter company (“ Charter Provider ”) to obtain cost-effective rates, and facilitate reservations and availability for yacht charters, excursions and travel (the “ Charter ”). Broker also provides services to you by facilitating the booking of reservations for consideration and receives a commission from the Charter Provider (the “ Broker Fee ”). The Broker Fee is included in the pre-negotiated Charter rate provided to you, plus taxes and other fees where applicable. You agree that your payment is for the total amount set forth in the applicable Charter agreement (which Charter Provider may refer to as a Charter Contract, Charter Agreement, Booking Terms & Conditions, Instructions and Terms for Accommodations, as well as other derivations) provided to you by Broker (“ Charter Agreement ”). Upon execution of the Charter Agreement and receipt of the applicable deposit, you will have made a reservation for the Charter that authorizes Broker to facilitate the Charter on your behalf (“Charter Reservation”), including making payment arrangements with the Charter Provider. You further agree that Broker is a third-party beneficiary to the Charter Agreement and shall have the right to enforce such agreement to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder or under the Charter Agreement.

  Broker retains the Broker Fee as compensation in arranging your Charter Reservation. The Broker Fee varies based on the amount and type of Charter and/or services provided by Broker.  By making a Charter Reservation, you accept and agree to the relevant cancellation and no-show policy of the Charter Provider set forth in the Charter Agreement. Cancellation and no-show policies vary for each Charter. Carefully read the Charter Agreement and additional information provided to you by Broker. It is expressly agreed by Charterer that the Broker Fee is earned at the time the Charter Reservation is made. Late payment, wrong credit card or debit card details, invalid credit or debit cards, or insufficient funds are for your own risk and account, and you will not be entitled to any refund of any prepaid amount unless the Charter Provider expressly agrees otherwise under the Charter Agreement or in some other signed writing.

  • Charter Rules and Restrictions . Additional terms and agreements will apply to your Charter Reservation and any purchase or rental of equipment or other items, supplies, provisions and travel you may select. Please read those additional terms carefully. In particular, if you have purchased airfare, please ensure that you read the full terms and conditions of carriage issued by the supplier. You agree to abide by the terms of purchase imposed by any supplier with whom you elect to deal, including but not limited to payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the supplier’s rules and restrictions regarding availability, charges, fares, and use of products and services.
  • Payment . All payments must be made by personal check, bank/wire transfer, ACH payment and/or with a major credit card unless otherwise expressly stated. The total price for the Charter Reservation will be billed in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated. Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a reservation from outside of the United States on a US credit card, your bank may convert the payment amount to your local currency and charge you a conversion fee. This means the amount listed on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and therefore a different figure than the amount provided by Broker for the Charter Reservation. In addition, a foreign transaction fee may be assessed if the financial institution that issued your credit card is located outside of the United States. Booking international travel may be considered to be an international transaction by the financial institution or card company. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your financial institution on the day that it processes the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your financial institution. Broker shall not be liable to you for any such service, conversion, or exchange fee.

  Broker expressly reserves the right to cancel your Charter Reservation if full payment is not timely received as set forth in the Charter Agreement.

  • Cancellation and Rescheduling . You may cancel or change your Charter Reservation as set forth in the Charter Agreement by and among you, the Charter Provider and/or Broker. Please note that some Charter Providers do not permit changes to or cancellation of reservations after they are made, or after a certain date, as indicated in the Charter Agreement. You agree to abide by the terms of the Charter Agreement with respect to your Charter Reservation. Broker will not be responsible for reimbursing Charterer for any previously tendered deposits or payments by Charterer and disclaims all liability for the failure of a Charter Provider to refund or return any such funds.
  • Credit Card Transactions and Chargebacks . If for any reason, any Charter Provider is unable to provide the Charter, or any part thereof, for which you have contracted, your remedy lies against the Charter Provider, and not against Broker. However, Broker will use reasonable efforts to assist you and Charter Provider in reaching a resolution to a dispute between you and the Charter Provider. In the event that your payment has already been transferred from Broker to Charter Provider or to an escrow account, you agree that you will not seek a chargeback against Broker for such amounts transferred. You further agree to indemnify and hold Broker harmless from and against any liability, loss, damage or expense (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Broker may incur in connection with chargebacks against Broker or under the Charter Agreement and your performance thereunder. If Broker incurs any costs, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, to recover any payments charged back by your credit card company or other financial institution, you agree that you will be liable for these costs. If your payment is declined for any reason, you agree to settle any amounts owed to Broker via money order, cashier’s check, personal check or bank/ACH transfer immediately.
  • Broker Responsibility . Broker makes arrangements with the Charter Provider. Broker additionally makes additional arrangements with other suppliers for the various components and other services that comprise your Charter (“Charter Suppliers”). Broker is not an agent of these Charter Providers or the Charter Suppliers (and the Charter Providers and Charter Suppliers are not agents of Broker). Broker expressly disclaims any liability for the actions or omissions of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. The Charter Providers and the Charter Suppliers reserve the right to refuse service to you at their sole discretion. Broker assumes no liability for the acts of the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers in refusing service. Broker is not responsible for schedule changes and does not offer compensation for those changes. Broker is not responsible under any circumstances for any injury or damages you may suffer, in connection with sea, air or ground transportation, hotel accommodations, or other travel or excursion services arranged by Broker.

  You understand Broker is not the source or supplier of the Charter or other travel services you requested and acts solely as a broker for the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. You agree that the Charter Provider and Charter Suppliers whose names appear in the information supplied to you are those who are solely responsible for providing the Charter you purchase. You consent to and request the use of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers and agree to not hold Broker responsible should any of them: (i) fail to provide the Charter or travel services you purchased, whether or not such services are listed in the Charter Agreement or otherwise, (ii) fail to comply with any applicable law, or (iii) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes you any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience.

By using Broker’s services, you waive and release any claim against Broker, its affiliated and subsidiary companies, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents, arising out of or in connection with any loss of or damage to property or injury to any person caused by reason of (i) any defect, negligence, or other wrongful act or omission, or any failure of performance of any kind, by any Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, or any other provider of sea, airline, hotel, ground transportation or any other travel provider connected to or otherwise associated with the Charter, (ii) any claim for inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, mental distress or other similar claim, (iii) any delayed departure, missed connection, substitute accommodation, termination of service or change in fares or rates, and (iv) overbooking, flight or other travel cancellation, lost or misconnected personal property, or any claim arising out of the air transportation portion of your travel, and (v) or any other claim arising out of or otherwise related to the Charter Agreement or services provided by the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers.

Excepting only liability that directly arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Broker, you will not hold Broker responsible for any injury, damage or loss you may suffer while on a Charter, whether incurred on the Charter or in connection with any other rental, purchase, excursion or activity, regardless of the relationship of any of the foregoing with the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers.

  • Your Responsibility . By booking a Charter with Broker, you agree to defend and indemnify and hold harmless Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, causes of action, demands, recoveries, losses, damages, fines, penalties or other costs or expenses of any kind or nature, including but not limited to reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with: (i) your breach of these Terms or the documents referenced herein; (ii) your violation of any law or rights of a third party; or (iii) your use of the Broker website.

You will review your Charter Agreement and travel documents for accuracy upon receipt. You understand that it is your responsibility to review the accuracy of all details in the Charter Reservation provided to you, and that you may contact Broker if you have any questions.

You assume full and complete responsibility for checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of your destination(s), and all conditions regarding health, safety, security, political stability, and labor or civil unrest at such destination(s).

You understand that Broker recommends purchasing travel insurance to cover certain risks inherent in travel such as supplier bankruptcy and the inability to travel due to a medical or personal emergency.

  • No Warranties . All Charters, products, services, advice and information is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied to the fullest extent permitted under the law, including but not limited to, warranties of title or implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality or fitness for a particular purpose. Without limiting the above, no warranty or guarantee is made (i) regarding the acceptance of any reservation request or Charter Reservation; (ii) regarding the availability of Charters, or any other product and/or services through Broker; (iii) that the use of Broker’s website will be error-free; or (iv) regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability or quality of any information, content, data, service, advice or merchandise provided by Broker or through Broker’s website.

Broker has no special knowledge regarding the Charter Provider’s or Charter Supplier’s financial condition, unsafe conditions, health hazards, weather hazards, or climate extremes at locations to which you may travel during or otherwise in connection with your Charter.

  • Limitation on Liability . In no event shall Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and/or their respective affiliates, or any employees, agents, officers, directors, members or managers of any of the foregoing (“Broker and Charter Releasees”), be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of, or in any way connected with, your access to, display of or use the Broker’s website, the Charter or services provided to you in connection with the Charter (including, but not limited to, your reliance upon opinions of the Broker), whether based on a theory of negligence, contract, tort, strict liability, consumer protection statutes, or otherwise, and even if Broker and/or any other of the Broker and Charter Releasees have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

If, despite the limitation above, Broker or the Broker and Charter Releasees are found liable for any loss or damage which arises out of or in any way connected with any of the occurrences described above, then Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Supplier and the Broker and Charter Releasees will in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) the Broker Fee, and (b) One-Hundred Dollars (US $100.00).

The foregoing limitation of liability reflects the allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this section will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have failed of its essential purpose. The limitations of liability provided in these Terms inure to the benefit of Broker and/or its providers.

The foregoing does not affect any liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

  • Limitation on Time to File Claims . ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF RELATING TO BROKER’S SERVICES OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
  • Waiver . No waiver by Broker of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Broker to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
  • Severability . If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.
  • Governing Law and Mandatory Venue . The laws of the State of Florida govern the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement and the interpretation, construction and enforceability thereof. You agree that any action or proceeding initiated by Charterer against Broker shall be brought solely in the federal and state courts of Hillsborough County, Florida, and you submit to the jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over you by those courts. In the event any action or proceeding is initiated by Charterer in a court outside of Hillsborough County, Florida, Charterer agrees to pay Broker’s costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees associated with defending such action or proceeding and waives any and all defenses to the transfer of said action or proceeding, whether jurisdictional or otherwise, to a federal or state court in Hillsborough County, Florida.

Most people agree, that if you want a relaxing, quality vacation on the Caribbean Sea, the Bahamas are the ideal choice. Nassau and Freeport are both full of historical sights and teeming marketplaces. For a more active pastime, you can rent diving gear to explore coral reefs.

Bahamas bareboat yacht charter – the main ports

George town.

George Town can be found in the central-western part of Great Exuma. We can anchor practically anywhere around the town, as the area is well-protected. There are great anchorages in the centre, at Kidd’s Cove, and a little more to the south behind Crab Cay, at Red Shanks. There is a large port that belongs to Exuma Market in the centre; from here we can easily get to the central shops. They have a fuel station nearby that we can use. There are several yacht marinas in the area, for instance, February Point Marina and Marina Village Crab Cay. All of these marinas are relatively small and family-friendly. Exuma Cay Yacht Club can be found in the southern part of town. Here we can get fuel, access electricity, replenish our water and ice supplies, and they have shower cabins as well. There are also many restaurants and groceries in town.

Norman’s Cay

Norman’s Cay is one of the most fascinating islands of the Exumas, as the area is surrounded by an ancient coral reef. The conditions are suitable for all kinds of waterfront activities, but the place is also perfect for a relaxing afternoon. The remains of drug lord Carlos Lehder’s plane lie beneath the sea. It is a classic diving spot, as the plane is still intact, providing a home for tropical fish and corals. We can anchor at several parts of the island. Boats that are well-suited to strong waves may use the area between Battery Point and Norman’s Cut. As for vessels with a smaller draft, they can anchor near Boot Cay. We can find other anchorages on the southeastern side between the dock and the plane wreck. The area is well-protected against winds, and the depth of water is around 2 metres.

Highbourne Cay

Highbourne Cay is a small, private island between Nassau and Eleuthera. It’s a popular stop for boaters heading to Nassau. We can get water, ice fuel, food and all the essential supplies we need here. Its harbour is beautiful, well maintained and protected. Information about sailing in Exumas or yacht charter in Exumas.

Harbour Island

Harbour Island lies in the northern part of the Eleuthera archipelago and is a perfect place for those looking for diversity. There are great hiking opportunities in the district of the old dockyard. We can find a ruinous fort here that was built under the leadership of the legendary pirate Charles Wayne. The area near the beach is full of marvellous caves, the largest of which was converted to a prison in the 18th century. Today, it is one of the most popular spots to visit. Another reason that the tiny island is popular among visitors is the unique beaches covered with pink sand. There are two yacht ports on the island: Harbour Island Club & Marina and Valentines Marina. Both of them is a well-equipped port with fuel docks.

Rock Sound is a large bay located south of Governor’s Harbour. It is a very friendly town with amazing shops and a wide variety of services. There are great anchorages in the area; however, none of them is completely protected. There are also two small free dinghy docks and an awesome beach near Wild Orchid. Davis Harbour Marina, which is the closest yacht marina, can be found in the southern part of the island. There are 24 anchorages here, and the depth of water is app. 2.5 metres. They offer shower cabins, laundry, fresh-water, ice, fuel and even boat maintenance on the dock. Information about sailing in Eleuthera , or Eleuthera boat rentals.

Blue Water Marina

Blue Water Marina is a great yacht marina in Bimini, providing full comfort to its guests.. We can refuel, replenish our water and ice supplies, use the showers and the laundry service and visit the amazing restaurant. They accommodate 36 boats, and the depth of water is app. 4 metres. We can choose from many diving, fishing and other watersport activities. Information about sailing in Bimini , or boat rental in Bimini. If you wish for an amazing holiday with sunshine and the stunning wonders of nature, visit the Bahamas, where you’ll find all of this. Organize an adventurous day for your kids, rent a yacht to become one of the pirates of the Caribbean. Find yacht routes in the Bahamas or choose another bareboat charter in the Caribbean

Beaches in the Bahamas

Picturesque beaches, gulfs, and lagoons with the gorgeous view of the sea and warm sunshine will all make your journey unforgettable.

Gulf of Goodman:

Goodman’s Bay Beach is a popular public beach in Cable Beach. This beach offers locals and tourists a variety of fitness activities and a number of water sports. It’s ideal for lovers of sailing. Besides sailboat rental you can rent a moped or banana boat. The sand is rougher compared to other beaches in Nassau, but the water is just as clean and refreshing. There are no restaurants, but in busy periods you can find hot dog stands and merchants selling soft drinks. Due to safety reasons, visiting the beach at night is not recommended.

Pink Sands beach:

Many people visit Harbour Island to view the famous Pink Sands beach. You shouldn’t believe every picture you see on the internet though. Some are left disappointed when they find out that the beach is not fully pink as some photos suggest. The unique mixture of coral, broken shells, miniature rocks, and calcium carbonate color the sand with pink fragments. It’s a long, wide beach. Calm waters surround it. It’s ideal for wedding ceremonies, sports, and yoga.

Junkanoo beach:

The Junkanoo is the only beach in the Bahamas that functions as a full-time party beach. This small but lively area has music, bathrooms, showers, and local dealers. The Tiki Bikini Hut restaurant on the shore serves cocktails in fresh coconut shells. The beach, within walking distance of Nassau’s city center, is popular among sailors primarily due to its nearness to the coastal port. The water is just as beautiful as most beaches in the Bahamas, but the sand is a bit rocky. Only 50 m from Junkanoo beach there’s Long Wharf Beach, which has a similar atmosphere but with less audience.

Main attractions in the Bahamas

The capital of the Bahamas, Nassau, is on New Providence Island in the business region of the country. Historically it was a pirate fortress. The House of Parliament and different judicial organizations are also here. There are kid-friendly sights on the Bahamas like the Atlantis, the water park of the Bahamas on Paradise Island. The Dolphin Encounters is a sea habitat with trained dolphins. Dolphins show diving tricks and give kisses to visitors. You can swim with them, take a photo together, or feed them.

The concept of piracy became popular through movies like The Pirates of the Caribbean. This era, however, is a critical period of Caribbean history. The “golden age of piracy” lasted from 1690 to 1720. It had a huge effect on the Bahamas, since the capital, Nassau, supplied the biggest pirate concentration out of every Caribbean island. Visitors of the Pirates of Nassau interactive Museum can view the weapons used by pirates and come to know the most popular pirate legends. This museum is an especially exciting program for children.

Bareboat Charter in the Bahamas

Superyacht charter in the bahamas, travel tips:.

  • The Bahamas is relatively hassle-free, with minimal red tape. All travelers, including U.S. citizens, require a passport. Nassau’s Lynden Pindling International Airport implements TSA PreCheck, and Paradise Island facilitates pre-clearance for U.S. Customs and Immigration Services.
  • Private flight options are available through several fixed-base operators (FBO), like Jet Nassau and Odyssey Aviation. For a fee, the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism offers expedited services at the airport when flying commercial or transferring to the FBO from Nassau. You can also fly into George Town, Staniel Cay, Norman’s Cay, or Eleuthera.
  • A daily ferry runs from Fort Lauderdale to Grand Bahama Island, approximately three hours, but make sure it makes sense for your charter base location.
  • The Moorings can help organize travel, and brokers can recommend travel arrangements.
  • D’Offay recommends your broker organize transportation to the boat to ensure you get a reliable vehicle and driver. Minimize carrying valuables, check travel advisories, and be aware of your surroundings.

Set Sail with a Yacht Charter Bahamas Excursion

bareboat sailboat charter bahamas

Are you considering signing up for a yacht charter Bahamas? If you are, it’s understandable as to why. With 700 stunning and secluded islands separated by clear, azure water, Bahamas sailing charters seem like one of the most straightforward ways to traverse the archipelago. 

In this guide, we’re going to explain everything you need to know about yacht rental Bahamas. We’re also going to highlight how, in many cases, chartering a plane is preferable to renting a boat – especially if you need to traverse long distances. 

Keep reading to learn all about Bahamas sailing charters!

Yacht Charter Bahamas: Your Guide to Bahamas Sailing Charters 

Choosing a destination .

When you’re investigating the different yacht charter Bahamas choices, you’ll see options across the archipelago. Many are in Nassau or nearby Paradise Island since most travelers enter the country through the international airport or cruise port. And while you can’t go wrong with any destination in the Bahamas, we recommend spending the most time exploring the Exuma Cays.

Yacht Charter Bahamas Exuma islands - Sailboat Charter Bahamas is a convenient way to visit all the Exuma Islands. So too is flying to the Exuma islands by Plane.

The Exuma Cays are one of the most beautiful destinations in the country.

Exuma is a district of the country south of the capital. It features 365 islands and offers a quieter, more authentically Bahamian experience. Instead of seeing crowded and commercialized attractions, you’ll find hidden beaches, fun local attractions, and the brightest water you’ll ever see.

While the Exuma Cays are famous for all that they have to offer, the region is best known for its unique local residents: the Swimming Pigs. No yacht Exuma experience is complete without a visit to their home, Pig Island!

Swimming Pigs Tours: The Ultimate Day Trip

Yacht Charter Bahamas swimming pigs at Big Major Cay - Pig Beach, home of the Bahamas Exuma PIgs close to Staniel Cay. Bahamas Sailing charters are a great way to visit the famous Bahamas Swimming Pigs

A yacht charter Bahamas excursion isn’t complete without a stop at Pig Island.

Given how famous the Swimming Pigs are, numerous other imitation islands have appeared around the country. However, the original island is Big Major Cay (the official name of Pig Beach ) in Exuma. 

Unfortunately for many travelers, Pig Beach is around 80 miles away from the capital. Because of that, a dreamy-sounding yacht charter Bahamas experience morphs into something else, as day trips require the use of high-speed powerboats. From exposure to the sun, wind, and water to general motion sickness, the experience isn’t as pleasant as many travelers hope it to be. 

Thankfully, air travel is an option that more and more tourists are taking advantage of. Avoiding long-distance yacht rental Bahamas and flying saves you time, giving you more time to spend exploring the Exumas. 

From hanging out with the Exuma Pigs to swimming with nurse sharks, snorkeling through underwater caves, and doing so much more, Bahamas day trips by plane offer the ultimate experience. 

Traveling With Bahamas Air Tours 

Bahamas Sailing Charters are a convenient and luxury mode of transport to visit the Exuma Cays and Bahamas Islands. Yacht rental Bahamas in the Exuma Cays.

Sailboat charter Bahamas excursions are just one way to traverse the country.

Bahamas Air Tours makes getting to the Exuma Cays a breeze. Instead of embarking on a journey that lasts hours, flying from Nassau to Exuma takes just around 30 minutes. 

If you’re staying in Nassau, Bahamas Air Tours will pick you up from your hotel. You’ll then make your way to the local airport, where you’ll wait in a secluded lounge before boarding your private-class plane. Once you’re in the air, it’ll feel like no time at all before you begin your descent. 

Flying is so efficient that a Miami to Bahamas day trip becomes possible. While traditional South Florida Bahamas day trips take travelers to Freeport or Bimini, flying makes it possible for U.S. residents and travelers to meet the Swimming Pigs. The journey takes around two hours one way, with passengers arriving back to Miami in the early evening. 

When you’re traveling long distances across the Bahamas, consider avoiding yacht charter Bahamas. Chartering a plane or signing up for a day trip is the way to go!

Boat Charter Bahamas in Exuma

Swimming Pigs tours that travel by plane land on Staniel Cay . This postcard-perfect island is known as the “Gateway to Exuma,” as it houses a regional airport. 

After landing, travelers switch over to a boat charter Bahamas and make their way from island to island. This allows you to experience the best of both worlds – you can gaze out the window of your plane from above but also experience yacht charter Bahamas once you land. 

Yacht rental bahamas is the best way to sail the exumas islands. Bahamas sailing charters are a convenient mode of transport to island hop the exuma cays.

Switch to a yacht Bahamas after landing in Exuma.

Cruising around the Exuma Cays on a sailboat charter Bahamas is an experience unlike no other. As you make your way between the different tropical paradises in the region, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a movie. 

Sailboat Charter Bahamas From Staniel Cay

Staniel Cay is the Gateway to Exuma in more ways than one. Besides housing a regional airport, the island is also home to the Staniel Cay Yacht Club . Serving as a marina, a restaurant, and a luxurious set of accommodations, the yacht club is one of the most important locations on the island. 

Staniel Cay Yacht Club is one of the top rated Bahamas Sailing Charters destinations. The SCYC is home to a full service marina and the island closest to the famous Bahamas Swimming Pigs at Big Major Cay island in Exuma.

Staniel Cay is a hub for yacht rental Bahamas excursions.

If you decide to stay on the island, you can take advantage of the yacht club’s connections. It partners with several different yacht charter Bahamas companies, giving you plenty of options to choose from. Likewise, there are also private island retreats and rental house properties. 

Travelers passing through Staniel Cay on a day trip can still see Staniel Cay Yacht Club. Besides flying over the island and catching a glimpse at the boats moored there, some tours also visit the restaurant for lunch. Serving up freshly caught Bahamian food such as lobster and conch, the yacht club offers an unbeatable culinary experience. 

Between being a marina, a restaurant, and a place to stay, Staniel Cay Yacht Club is a major hub in Exuma. Regardless of what sort of yacht Bahamas experience you end up partaking in, there’s a good chance you’ll make your way through the island. 

The Benefits of Air Travel 

As mentioned, skipping the yacht charter Bahamas when it comes to long distances is a good idea. But besides saving you time, there are several other reasons why flying is a better travel option. 

For one thing, flying offers a much more comfortable experience. Many of the yacht Bahamas companies that leave from Nassau cram as many people as possible onto high-speed power boats. For most travelers, smacking across waves with crowds of other travelers doesn’t offer a particularly enjoyable experience. 

In contrast, flying with Bahamas Air Tours lets you travel with a small group. Every person on the private-class plane has their own window, and the seats are plush and comfortable. While small levels of turbulence are normal, it’s nothing compared to the feeling of bouncing across open-water waves. 

This level of intimacy extends to your experience once you land. Since most of the yacht Exuma companies departing from Nassau take several hours to arrive, many of the sites you visit will be devoid of other travelers – especially in the earlier morning hours. This offers a less touristy feeling experience, allowing you to make the most of your time in the region. 

Bahamas Sailing Charters: Consider Flying 

Yacht charter Bahamas is a great way to explore the different islands in the country. However, we believe that in many instances, you’ll find chartering a plane or signing up for a day trip that travels by plane to be the better choice. 

Flying around the Bahamas gets you to your destination in a fraction of the time and offers a more comfortable experience. Plus, once you arrive at a destination like the Exuma Cays, you switch over to a boat anyway. 

Start planning your dream vacation by signing up for Bahamas day trips by plane today!
