SHOPPING - There is a straw market located under the tree in the
center of town where you can purchase t-shirts and hand made straw
items, such as hats, purses, baskets and bags. There are also
several small boutiques for jewelry, clothing, and other souvenirs.
MARINA - Elizabeth Harbor has lots of sailing and power vessels to
check out. Walk right out on the docks and take a look close-up or
rent a boat for the day!
TOURING - You can catch a water taxi from George Town, and cross the
harbor to Stocking Island. Plan on spending a full day exploring the
island. There is a restaurant there, or you can pack a picnic lunch.
Lots of good shelling areas, hiking trails, and beautiful sandy
beaches await you.

OTHER ISLANDS & POINTS OF INTERESTS -
Little Exuma - To the south, Great Exuma Island is connected to
Little Exuma by a one-lane bridge. The Tropic of Cancer is located
on Little Exuma. You should have your picture taken on this 20-
degree meridian. William's Town is the site of one of the original
cotton plantations. The old mansion still stands, and not far off is
the foundation of the old slave barn. The family burial tombs are
also nearby. You will want to stop and look at the old salt ponds
that were part of the plantation. Salt was one of the major exports
sent back to England.
As you are heading back to Great Exuma, there are many roads, most
of them will lead to a beach, so don't be shy, take one and find out
what is at the other end. Tourist exploration is always WELCOME!
BARATERRE - Now let's go to the northern end of Great Exuma Island.
Two small islands are connected to Exuma by causeways. You can drive
all the way to a small community called Baraterre. It is home to the
famous restaurant known as Fisherman's Inn. Lunch or dinner is worth
the drive.
COCO PLUM - Now, on to the 'prime jewel' of Exuma, Coco Plum Beach.
It is also known as 'Sand Dollar' beach and with good reason. You
can pick up as many sand dollars as you can carry. Yes, there is a
way to pack them so you can get them back home. We will be happy to
show you!
WHAT TO DO -
For honeymooners, families, new retirees, a 'just the girls'
beaching trip or a 'just the guys' fishing trip, Exuma has endless
opportunities for outdoor adventurers...even if the extent of your
adventure is an umbrella drink, a lawn chair, and a good book!
SNORKELING and DIVING - There are as many wonderful places to
snorkel and dive as there are beaches on this island. One of the
best places to snorkel is on the large coral reef right in front of
Breezy Hill. Lobster and beautiful reef fish are abundant as are
multi-colored corals and underwater vegetation. Other neat places to
snorkel are Anne’s Creek, the Southside of the island and Coco Plum
Beach. If you don’t have your own gear, you can rent some from the
dive shop in George Town.
FISHING - The fishing is fabulous in Exuma. You can fish from the
shore, in the surf, on a charter-fishing trip, or rent a boat from
the marina in George Town. Popular catches include bonefish,
barracuda, tarpon, flounder, grouper, and even shark.
LOBSTERING - Our four boys grew up learning to fish and dive for
lobster in front of Breezy Hill. And to this day, one of their
favorite reasons to return to the island is to hunt for lobster!
Using Hawaiian slings, they swim, snorkel, and dive all over the
island catching dinner. You can too! The lobsters in the waters of
Exuma are the biggest and best tasting in the world. You bring them
home and we will show you how to clean and cook them for a meal you
will never forget!
SCUBA DIVING - Guided dive trips are available from the dive shops
in George Town. The trips explore the multiple blue holes and coral
reefs around the island. Equipment rental, for self guided trips is
also available on the island.
BOATING - The marina in George Town has boats and kayaks for rent or
you can take a guided fishing or diving excursion on a chartered
boat.
GOLF - The Greg Norman Championship golf course is now open and
available for your golfing pleasure.
