Green Turtle Cay
Green Turtle Cay, one of the charming cays situated just off the Abaco Bahamas mainland, was the second largest city in the Bahamas
in the 1800's. Today the year round population is less than one
thousand people. The residents are mostly engaged in fishing,
construction and tourism. This settlement began with the Loyalist in
1783, making it one of the oldest in the Bahamas. This is the home
of world famous artist Alton Lowe. Strolling along the paved roads
you will meet with the warm and engaging locals who will make you
feel like this is your home away from home. Seeing the historic
village of New Plymouth takes you back in time where you expect to
see pirate ships coming in the harbour. You walk back in time with
the contrasts of the narrow streets and brightly painted Caribbean
style cottages surrounded by white picket fences, curly tail lizards
and vibrantly coloured flowers. Visiting the settlement's Albert
Lowe Museum and the Sculpture garden are a bonus of this small
island's history. Dine at one of the island's delicious eateries,
order a tropical drink, relax and enjoy the sunset.
Green Turtle Cay is an excellent location choice for a relaxing
Bahamas vacation getaway. Several excellent
vacation rental
accommodations can be found on

beachfront cottages,
sea view villas and

There are numerous activities to choose from, but being lazy with a

fun in the sun
