Bahamas Yacht Charters
Bahamas yacht charters will take you to several of the archipelago’s seven hundred islands and two thousand cays. The Bahamas are located in the Atlantic Ocean, southeast of Florida and the United States. They sit north of Cuba, the island of Hispaniola and the Caribbean, and northwest of Turks and Caicos.
While many areas are worth visiting below, two great ideas for a charter include exploring the Exumas and Abacos on your luxury yacht.

Bahamas Climate and Weather
The temperatures in most Bahamas linger between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit, thanks to the constant gentle trade winds. Summers are hot, with temperatures from 80 to 90 degrees with higher humidity. And the rainy season runs from June to November.
Although some days are wet and grey in the rainy season, showers usually pass quickly. The island has over 300 days of sunshine each year.
The Bahamas is a great all-year-round destination for luxury yacht charter vacations. The Bahamas are one of the best spring break destinations. Winter provides abundant sunshine, cooler nights, and lower rain chances.

Exuma Cays
The Exuma Cays Land & Sea Park is an archipelago in central Exuma, Bahamas. These cays are one of two locations where swimming with dolphins is permitted in The Bahamas. The park also has a variety of other activities to enjoy, including hiking, kayaking, and snorkeling. You'll stop at this beautiful park on an Exuma to Harbour Island Itinerary.
Enjoy the stunning views of turquoise seas and white sand beaches as you sail the crystal clear waters on your private Bahamas yacht charter. Explore George Town, the capital city of the Bahamas, and its many attractions, including historic sites and tasty seafood restaurants.
One of the most popular attractions in the Bahamas is swimming with the pigs at Big Major Cay. By snorkeling or scuba diving, visit the incredible marine life just below the water's surface. The Exumas are a wonderful place to charter for those who enjoy water toys.
Staniel Cay
Check out Staniel Cay, a tiny island off Great Exuma Island with shops, restaurants, and hotels. It's only accessible by boat or plane, so you'll need your yacht charter from Nassau if you want to visit.
New Providence Island
In addition, we recommend visiting New Providence Island. Its cosmopolitan vibe makes it one of our favorite places in The Bahamas! There's much to see and do, from browsing the local markets to exploring historical sites like Fort Charlotte. And, of course, you can't forget to taste the delicious local cuisine and rum while visiting!
Moreover, you can visit one of many nature preserves or learn about local history at a museum. Nassau is also home to Fort Fincastle, built by British soldiers in 1793. Birdwatchers will enjoy spotting the flamingos and other native species that call this park home.
Bahamas Yacht Charters | History
Christopher Columbus first landed in the Bahamas in 1492, encountering a subgroup of Arawakan-speaking Taino people. These native inhabitants were known as the Lucayans and are believed to be the first inhabitants of the Bahamas.
After the Spanish conquest, the British began to settle the islands in 1647. The Bahamas gained independence from Britain in 1973, but the British government retained responsibility for defense and foreign affairs. Thus, many Bahamians have ties to Britain, and there are political parties supporting secession from the Commonwealth of Nations.
Ninety percent of its visitors come from the United States. About one-third of the population lives in Nassau or within 25 miles of Nassau. Manufacturing accounts for a significant part of the economy, producing clothing and other goods such as cigarettes, paintbrushes, plastics, furniture, aluminum foil, toys, shoes, and clothing.
Bahamas Yacht Charters | Marinas
There are marinas on nearly every significant island. Some marinas include Bay Street Marina, Albany Marina, Lyford Cay Club Marina, Palm Cay Marina in Nassau, Emerald Bay Marina in Great Exuma, Port Lucaya Marina in Freeport, and Highbourne Cay Marina in Highbourne Cay. The new Norman Cay Marina recently opened in the Exumas.

If you wish to enjoy beautiful white sand beaches, quiet anchorages, low-key onshore entertainment, lots of water toys, bone fishing, deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, and your company, then this may be the place for you.
