Every stay at Abaco Beach Resort and Boat Harbour Marina is unique when so much authentically Abaco adventure awaits. We place you in the center of a variety of land and water activities whether you’re a boater, beach-goer, explorer or little bit of each.
BOATING
Boats are a rich part of the fabric of history at Abaco Beach Resort and Boat Harbour Marina. It is a place for boaters, sailors, and those with a deep affection for the sea to call their own, where guests check-in, slip into their favorite flip-flops and t-shirt, and head for the boatyard.
They hail from around the world – sport fishermen, yachtsmen, and families who reconnect on the pier as they fire up the engines or hoist the mainsail and prepare to shove off. For decades, Boat Harbour has been a magnet for Bahamas boating holidays and sailing adventures, with its unmatched access to the Out Islands’ many surrounding cays, the Sea of Abaco, and of course, the largest and best equipped marina in the Bahamas.
Our concierge can arrange your boat rental or charter here at the resort.
FISHING
There’s no better way to experience the Out Islands than from the water. You can explore a different part of the islands each day and never return to the same one twice!
There are as many ways to explore as there are sights to see. A convenient ferry system connects Marsh Harbour with the major outlying cays and islands. You can sail or cruise in your own boat, rent a boat, or arrange for a charter with Cruise Abaco. Set sail for a picnic on a deserted beach, snorkel an unexplored reef, or cruise into port for dinner. There’s no limit to what you will discover!
DIVING & SNORKELING
Abaco Beach Resort and Boat Harbour Marina offers a spectacular underwater playground for Abaco Bahamas snorkeling vacations and scuba adventures.

Once you leave, the great experiences don’t have to end, thanks to our Bahama Buddies Email Exchange. Add a more meaningful dimension to your children’s Bahamas experience and take advantage of this fun and engaging program!
ECO TOURS
Towering pine trees and coconut palms sway in the tropical island breeze. The sun shines down warming the top pools of the blue holes. The colorful Abaco Parrots happily greet guests from their nesting spots! While many visitors come to the Out Islands for our wonderful variety of water-based activities, it’s those who venture inland who get to learn other aspects of what makes our destination so unique.

This cultural and historical journey through Marsh Harbour and Great Abaco Island takes guests on an adventure by foot, on bicycle, and by kayak.
