Bahamas Ferries

If your visit to the Bahamas has you confined to one island, consider a Bahamas Ferries trip. The company runs a regular daily schedule of trips to several Out Islands (Eleuthera, Andros, Exuma, Freeport and Abaco), aboard their three state-of-the-art cruisers, one of which is the Bo Hengy, a $5.2 million catamaran that crosses the water at about 35 knots (40 mph). If you have a day to spare, by all means book a Day Away trip. The package includes hotel transfers, transportation to and from idyllic Harbour Island, a Bahamian lunch, a historic walking tour of the island's main sights and plenty of time for lounging on the famed pink sand beach.
