Located in the northern Bahamas, this long 120 miles (193 km) trail of islands forming the Abaco Islands is a sailing paradise among travelers. The Abaco Islands consist of the Great Abaco Island, little Abaco and innumerable small bays, carriers, coral reefs, and tidal creeks. This beautiful Abaco Island is a land of pristine beaches with expansive coastlines, red mangrove forests, and the century-old Bahamian settle in the Abaco. The Great Guana Bay is known to be the snorkeling destination for its large stretches of barrier reefs that are accessible from the beach. This treasure island of the Bahamas, in the east of South Florida, is also the home to historic lighthouses, colorful clapboard homes with an abundance of stunning corals and rich marine life. The charming towns offer great hotels, rental houses, and restaurants to spend your holiday in style and comfort. Let’s have a rundown of the best Vrbo accommodations on the Abaco Islands, the Bahamas.
