Villas in the North Islands
Biminis; Only 50 miles from Miami, and once home to Hemingway, Bimini is first-rate for big-game fishing. Made up of three islands – North, South and East – most of the islands’ inhabitants live in the North Island, which is where the main tourist centre is. South Bimini boasts the South Bimini Yacht Club and the legendary Fountain of Youth, while East Bimini has secluded beaches and the famous Shark Mound.
Abacos; This 120-mile necklace of islands and often-uninhabited cays and beaches is widely regarded as the sailing capital of the world. With colonial architecture, tiny picture-perfect villages, sheltered harbours and a rich ecosystem, the Abacos caters for visitors of all tastes. Boasting both secluded and activity beaches, you can also visit the Abaco Wild Horse Preserve or experience home-cooked island delights as scorch or cracked conch and Johnny Cake.
Eleuthera; Shaped like a praying mantis, the island has a magnificent glass window bridge offering fantastic views of the deep blue Atlantic on one side, and the turquoise Caribbean Sea on the other. Eleuthera has a laid-back ambiance, attracting travellers to its colonial villages and pineapple plantations as well as the unspoilt terrain with grottos and hidden caves. The abundance of water-related activities also draws the traveler to Eleutherahere, which has great fishing holes and dive spots.
