GETTING TO GREAT EXUMA
The Exuma International Airport is only a 15-minute drive away for flights to Nassau (capital city), Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta and Charlotte.
THE EXUMAS
The Exumas are an archipelago of 365 cays (pronounced keys) and islands, beginning just 35 miles (56 km) southeast of Nassau, capital city of The Bahamas. Once called Yumey and Suma (names of Amer-Indian origin), the Exumas have gone through many changes over the years. Rich in history, they were settled by British Loyalists with their slaves following the American Revolution, and remnants of that storied past remain.
The islands are divided into three major areas-Great Exuma, Little Exuma, and The Exuma Cays. Each one offers its own unique experience. Great Exuma and Little Exuma are known for their laidback surroundings, while The Exuma Cays act as a playground for the rich and famous, boasting numerous private homes, luxury resorts and beachside condos.
The Exuma Cays extend in an almost unbroken chain for almost 93 miles (150 km). One of the amazing sights in the cays is the "Mile-long Sandbar," a stretch of pure white sand emerging from the blue-green water at low tide.
Georgetown is the main town located on Great Exuma Island. Tourism, sailing, fishing, diving, and farming are the main industries and attractions. The population of the Exumas is 7,000.
The Tropic of Cancer crosses only two islands in The Bahamas, and Little Exuma in the southern part of the Exumas.
