Pulling yourself away from the beach might be a hard task, but we can assure you that it will be rewarding. A trip to Exuma isn’t complete with out at least a day on the water cruising around Elizabeth Harbour and doing it at your own pace. And a boat rental from Minn’s Water Sports in George Town is the perfect way to do it.
Cruising around the harbour, you’ll have your pick of adventures…many more than you can fit into a day. Deserted beaches to relax on or explore, hunting for those humungous burnt orange starfish, or hiking up to the beacon at the highest point on Stocking Island to take in the jaw dropping 360 degree views of the surroundings. Then grab lunch at Chat ‘N Chill or at St. Francis Resort and hang out for a bit. Crisscross the harbor past February Point and head under the bridge to Crab Cay and search for the friendly sea turtles that hang out in a secluded cove there. Head back over to the eastern end of Stocking Island and search for sand dollars in the knee deep crystal clear water or just zip around exploring the area.
It seems there are endless places to see and things to do. But not to be missed, our favorite is catching the tides right and watching the sandbar near Rolle Town and Morriah Cay appear. It's that picture perfect spot you've been dreaming about. You've very own island of white sand appearing right before your eyes. Just be careful where you anchor your boat or you’ll be hanging out there for a few extra hours.
If your not an experienced boater (we certainly weren't our first time out), the protected harbor has calm water and the team at Minn's will help you get started. Book your boat ahead of time to ensure you're set up for a great day.
