The 10 Best Sights & Landmarks in Out Islands, Out Islands
The Out Islands are synonymous with sport, from the depths of the Gulf Stream that yield big game fish to the coral reefs just off shore that are catnip to scuba divers. Sailing, kayaking and beach-combing add action to lazy days in the sun, while resident pink flamingos and rare Bahama parrots color local hikes.

Meander along the stunning lake trail then on to the beach where pink sands meets aqua sea. We have horses to suit every level of rider.

We went to Alnors almost every day for flour cakes, pineapple and coconut tart. Before our return to Nassau we picked up a few loaves of bread. Some of the best baked goods in the country!

This harbor town is truly charming with its colorful buildings, friendly residents and easy living. We rented a golf cart but it wasn't necessary as everything is so compact. Be sure to catch the sunset from town. It's spectacular!

The last time I saw swings in the water was 4 years ago in Great Exuma, Bahamas at Coco Plum Beach so needless to stay I had to stop at Tarpum Bay :) look at that water, it's Bahamas, it doesn't get any better. The swings have seen better days but it's an absolute blast to stop here even for a few minutes just to enjoy these views - check out the area as there some great views here not only at the swings but if you continue off the main road and stay along the shore - we loved it! We drove here from Governor's Harbour area on the way to Rock Sound - the drive is very pleasant and pretty relaxing/scenic for the most part so I highly recommended to anyone who likes to explore on their vacation :) TIP: we were on the way for lunch to Rock Sound but I wish we had more time and days to give any of the local spots here a shot, especially the one literally across from the swings looked very inviting - it might have been the BaySide View one, looked pretty new and very inviting!
10. Columbus Point
Overall Ratings

Scenic lookout point offering spectacular panoramic views of the coast.

Wow! I wanted to see the area where Christopher Columbus landed on Long Island, which was awesome. I was not expecting the beautiful hike up the small hill (with new concrete stairs). The view was spectacular! Also the road off of the Queens Highway to get to the monument is one of the widest and best on the island. Worth the drive!
