How to get here:
Great Exuma has a large runway with regular service from Miami
and Fort Lauderdale as well as regular service through Bahama
Air. I strongly recommend direct flights from Florida, as layovers
in Nassau can take all day.
There are several good hotels in George Town with good restaurants
of local fare and 2 restaurants with fine dining taste and price
to match. Ocean front homes are available for weekly rentals and
can be arranged as well as car rentals.
George Town has one bank with a brand new ATM machine and a fairly
well stocked grocery stores downtown.

Other places to fish:
Rum Cay - A very remote out Island, Home to Sumpner Point Marina.
The Island averages about 50 people. Lying about 70 NE miles from
Great Exuma where the fishing is amazing for all species, here
the fishing is usually hot and the fish are big, due to very little
fishing pressure. The marina is small and has a very good restaurant/bar
with an Asian flare upon request for dinner. Rum Cay is on of
the hottest marlin spots as well as giant Wahoo in the whole Bahamas.
Accommodations can be made. This is one of my favorite places
in the Bahamas.
Closest to George Town Great Exuma is Cape Santa Maria, Long Island
some 25 miles to the east. On good weather days we troll directly
there or follow a wall. A large underwater ridge extends out from
the cape four miles where currents and upwelling swirl as the
water comes up from 3,000 feet to 65 feet and back down. This
is the southern entrance to Exuma Sound.
Cat Island - Hawks Nest Marina and Resort lies 45 miles to the
north and if the north entrance to Exuma Sound. Here six miles
from the marina is Tartar Bank, a pinnacle surrounded by very
water. The marina is new and has a 4,500-foot usable runway for
private aircraft and charter flights. Also a pool, restaurant
and bar as well as rooms to rent. Diving here is excellent with
amazing wall diving.
