Acklins Island Bahamas!
Acklins Island is one of the least known islands of The Bahamas, Acklins comprises the southern and southeastern part of the chain. The terrain is hilly and desolate, with unusual rock formations, and varied plant and animal life, including an occasional swamp turtle. Along its coastline are numerous hidden coves with extensive, beautiful beaches and a number of tiny, colorful, villages.
Acklins and Crooked Island are separated by a shallow lagoon, known as Bight of Acklins. They are two of the four islands forming an atoll which hugs the beautiful shallow waters of the Bight of Acklins.
Bordered by the nearly uninhabited Castle Island and Long Cay, they are as natural as they were when The Bahamas was first "discovered." Columbus reputedly sailed down the leeward side of the islands through the narrow Crooked Island Passage, which has ever since served as an important route for steam ships traveling from Europe to Central and South America.
The bight of Acklins is more than 1000 square miles of shallow water. This is one of the largest area of bonefish-flats in the Bahamas. Exploring this system of flats, creeks, channels and mangrove marls could take a lifetime.
Acklins Island has many interestingly named hamlets--Rocky Point, Binnacle Hill, Salina Point, Delectable Bay, Golden Grove, Goodwill, Hard Hill, Snug Corner, and Lovely Bay. Some Crooked Island sites have more ominous names, such as Gun Point and Cripple Hill.
There are only two flights on Bahamasair into Acklins Island each week. These flights are on Wednesday and Saturday. Plan to spend the night in Nassau the day before travel into Acklins.
Please leave plenty of time between connections, especially on your return flight. Make sure you are booked into Spring Point, Acklins and that you exit the plane on Acklins Island as the flight serves more than one destination.
Beer and some liquor are available on the island. If you want a specific brand or blend, it is best to bring it with you. There are a number of small restaurant and bars. There are grocery stores stocked with food items and necessities. There is no tackle available on the island; make sure you bring everything you need. This is a remote fisher's paradise; one of the last left on this planet and although every effort is made to provide all amenities and services, we urge you to bring a flexible attitude along with your gear. |
