Nassau is widely considered one of the world's most seductive yachting destinations. Being the capital city of the Bahamas, yachting around Nassau offers more than 700 islands and cays to explore lending itself to an adventurous vacation or one of total seclusion. You will surely remember cruising in and around Nassau because of its turquoise waters and white sandy beaches.
Nassau is located in New Providence island neighboring Nassau Paradise Island, where you will encounter gorgeous powdery white sand beaches with pristine warm turquoise waters. A walk around the island will take you to luxury boutiques, local markets, and some of the freshest seafood right out of the ocean. Additionally, you can go on a date with Lady Luck at the largest casino in the Caribbean, or enjoy indulging in a plethora of water related activities.

The famous Pig Beach, located in Exuma, Bahamas, is just an hour’s boat ride from Nassau and most definitely should not be missed.

Boat Charter Bahamas: Visit Abaco Islands
Called the "top of The Bahamas," the Abacos comprise the northernmost portion of the nation. This boomerang-shaped mini-archipelago consists of Great Abaco and Little Abaco, as well as a sprinkling of Cays. For lovers of the outdoors, there are many uncrowded beaches, the sailing and fishing are spectacular, and the diving is excellent, too.
Boat Rental: Off to Marsh Harbour
If you want a world apart from the glitzy pleasures of Nassau, it’s time to rent a yacht for a day and explore Marsh Harbour. Located on Great Abaco Island, it is the major gateway to this island group. A number of good inns and hotels are located here, that would rent you a bike if you want to pedal around town. They have a shopping center and various other facilities not found in many Out Island settlements. Good water-taxi connections, too, make this a popular place from which to explore offshore Cays, including Man-O-War and Elbow.
Yacht Rental Bahamas: Top Marine Life Attractions and Berry Islands
One of the top things to do here is swimming with the sharks in a protected environment in Atlantis Paradise Island, but sharks are not the only marine life worth paying attention to in Nassau. The stingrays at Stingray City Park are extremely gentle and playful, and the dolphins at Blue Lagoon will actually take you dolphin skiing!
The Berry Islands, a cluster of 30 Cays, southeast of Bimini, and is home to Chub Cay, billfish capital of the Bahamas, is often referred to as “the Fish Bowl of the Bahamas”. Chub Cay borders a deep-sea gully known as the Tongue of the Ocean, making it a fisherman’s paradise famous for its record-breaking catches. Annually, Great Harbour Cay is packed with visitors and fishing captains for the annual fishing tournament.
Yacht Charter Nassau: Boat Rental to Blue Lagoon
If spectacular beaches are what you are after, rent a yacht for a day to the Blue Lagoon Island which is located just a few miles from Nassau. Once on the island, a natural habitat for dolphins and sea lions, you will find the most powdery white sand beaches and turquoise waters you have yet to encounter. Nassau has so many water related activities that sometimes simply lounging on the beach can be left aside, but make sure to pay a visit to Cabbage Beach on Nassau Paradise Island and Cable Beach on New Providence Island for a relaxful day lounging on the sand.
