It is for those who like getting off the beaten path, spending all day ALONE on amazing beaches, and enjoying island time. If you are looking for the royal treatment, amazing food, and hopping nightlife, Harbour Island or Nassau would be a much better choice for you. Eleuthera is also one of the best bonefishing locations in the world.

Most visitors to the Abaco Islands stop by Great Guana for the day while island hopping or are sailors making a pit stop, but if you want to stay somewhere with few tourists and almost nothing to do, this is the place for you.
