NASSAU AREA

DAY 1: NASSAU/ROSE ISLAND
Fly in to Nassau International Airport. A scenic 45 minute taxi brings you to your yacht, SOLSTICE, at a marina. Charters can start at any hour to match your schedule. Drop your luggage and have a bite to eat before you explore historic downtown Nassau. Enjoy cobblestone streets, pastel buildings and local flavor. On your return, we cast off for Rose Island, our evening anchorage. Relax with dinner al fresco while sailing with the setting sun. Enjoy both the stars and the glittering view of Nassau and Paradise Island in the distance as you sip after-dinner drinks on your private yacht.

DAY 2: ROSE ISLAND/GREEN CAY
Enjoy a morning snorkel right off the boat on the great reefs surrounding Rose Island, kayak to the beach for a breakfast picnic, or participate in a Resort Scuba Course led by Captain Cliff. Rose Island is a wonderful place to escape for that "out-island" feeling, with many opportunities for adventures and relaxation. In the afternoon, you can choose to take Solstice for a sail, go fishing, explore several nearby dive sites, or just stay put and relax in this beautiful anchorage. Sail on to Green Cay, a different evening anchorage.

DAY 3: GREEN CAY/PARADISE ISLAND
Awake to the deserted beaches of Green Cay, and jump in to the beautiful crystalline water. Enjoy breakfast al fresco before you embark on your day's adventures - options include more snorkeling, diving, kayaking, fishing, and beach combing. You may not see any other people or boats here, and the only beach footprints are often your own! Sail back to Nassau in the late afternoon, and visit Paradise Island. Hit happy hour at a pub, enjoy nightlife at the various resorts and casinos, or simply stroll through magical aquariums or charming shopping and café areas. Realize that in 3 short days, you've had the experience of a lifetime!

DAY 4: NASSAU
Enjoy a final breakfast aboard, disembark the same hour you boarded, and fly home! Realize that in 3 short days, you've had the experience of a lifetime!

This itinerary is considered 3 24-hour days and nights.

ANDROS ISLAND

Although charters can begin and end at any hour, we advise Andros Getaway guests to arrive by 1PM in order to depart for Andros that day. With guests arriving after 1 PM, we will anchor off of Nassau that night, and depart for Andros the next morning.

DAY 1: NASSAU
Fly in to Nassau International Airport and take a 10 minute taxi ride to Solstice's private dock in Coral Harbour. Along the way, dive or snorkel world class sites such as the "Bahama Mama" wreck or famous "Shark Arena" on the nearby Southwest Reef. Sail across the "Tongue of the Ocean", a mile deep abyss filled with fish to discover Andros, the Bahamas' largest and yet least populated and developed island. Feel free to relax and enjoy the sail, or to get involved and join the crew in sailing this stable catamaran. Arrive at Fresh Creek and anchor in a peaceful bay. Swim, snorkel or kayak to work up your appetite for dinner under the stars at anchor.

DAY 2: FRESH CREEK, ANDROS
Awake to the solitude and beauty of this true "Out Island". Enjoy a morning stretch, swim, or good book as breakfast is prepared for you. Andros boasts the world's third largest coral reef system, which makes it ideal for eco-travelers wanting to scuba dive, snorkel, fish and kayak. Take advantage of the fantastic opportunities to learn or hone spearfishing techniques, and perhaps you will catch lunch or dinner! This day is also well spent learning to scuba dive or making an extremely memorable dive on the vast reef and wall system. Sail to Water Cay in time for a new anchorage for sunset.

DAY 3: WATER CAY, ANDROS
Awake to a peaceful anchorage surrounded by virgin reefs with brilliant corals and active sea life. After a relaxing breakfast on deck, kayak through the fresh water mangrove rivers which wind through the island, or take the dinghy out for a fishing trip. Return in time for lunch and decide whether you will dive, snorkel, sail, kayak or relax onboard Sosltice at anchor for the afternoon. Depending on your whim, we can explore a a new evening anchorage area or return to the small settlement at Fresh Creek to experience the very quaint and local atmosphere of this charming family island.

DAY 4: NASSAU
Take a morning sail back to Nassau, fishing and snorkeling along the way. Arrive back at Coral Harbour both relaxed and energized from your charter!
