Minns Water Sports

Reviewed By DRL615 - Franklin, United States

Why didn't we do this last visit? 5 of us rented the 19 ft boat and headed out to explore the harbor, at our own pace, for the day. It was the best day of our whole vacation. We snorkeled at multiple spots, hung out on peaceful beaches, had a long lunch at the Chat n' Chill and then hit the sandbar at low tide. Returned the boat right at 5pm. The kids and the grown ups all say this was the best thing we did on vacation. Packed our own cooler, and took our own snorkel gear, but they will rent both to you if you need them. So much cheaper than a guided day doing the exact same things. Our boat had shade and boat seats, two large dry boxes. Highly recommend!

Coco Plum Beach

Reviewed By mrskleist - League City, United States

This is possibly one of the most amazing places on earth. You can walk for miles and miles into the ocean and never get above your waist. My daughters had so much fun collecting sand dollars. It was a very peaceful and beautiful beach to relax the afternoon away.

Nitza was ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! She came directly to our rented home in Exuma and conducted separate massages for both my boyfriend and myself. She was extremely friendly. I also liked the soothing music which she plays during the massage. I would highly recommend using her services. We will definitely be booking with her again next year when we return!

Hooper's Bay Beach

Reviewed By verhoev4 - Baltimore, United States

Spent 1 day at Hooper’s Bay beach with a family of 4 (two older teenagers). Hooper’s Bay is something like 5-10 min north of GeorgeTown. It’s past the fish fry and Jolly Hall beach. There is a tiny beach access sign on the side of road, so pay attention. The path to the beach is small and tucked between two houses. The stairs to the beach are broken in a couple areas so be careful. Hooper’s Bay is beautiful. Because it’s in a bay, the water is really calm. So, it’s a good beach for a windy day. The main reason we went here is it’s known for the sea turtles. When you get to the beach, head right towards the 2 docks. Most of the turtles are between the two docks. We have snorkeled with turtles before, but we have never experienced such ‘friendly’ turtles. They were not skittish at all and swam straight toward us and around us. You don’t even have to snorkel to enjoy them. Just stand still and they will swim all around you. I suspect some people feed them (which you shouldn’t do) and that’s why they are so friendly. In any case, it was an awesome experience. Did not see any bars or restaurants on this beach so pack stuff for yourself as needed. Here’s how we would rate the beaches we visited in Great Exuma (have reviews on each): 1. Coco Plum 2. Stocking Island 3. Tropic of Cancer 4. Hooper’s Bay 5. Forbes Hill Did not make it to Jolly Hall but hear that’s also nice.
