Andros also has the largest protected area in the Bahamas, with five national parks. In addition to all the natural attractions, you can visit the Androsia Hand Made Batik Factory, which sells colorful fabrics that capture the boldest Bahamian motifs.
9. Elbow Cay
Elbow Cay is just a 20-minute boat ride from Marsh Harbour, where you'll find Hope Town, which has harbor access and stunning views of the towering lighthouse. And in one of its most beautiful buildings there is a historical museum, which contains priceless manuscripts and photographs telling about the history of the city, as well as an extensive collection of Chinese porcelain that was salvaged from numerous sunken ships.
10. Green Turtle Cay
Green Turtle Cay (Green Turtle Reef) – the island is characterized by an indented coastline with picturesque bays and wonderful beaches. In the distant past, the island was home to many sea turtles. Unfortunately, most of them were exterminated during a ruthless hunt. Currently, a harmonious atmosphere reigns on the island. Most of the local residents are descendants of British loyal subjects who arrived in the archipelago at the end of the 18th century. It is also home to one of the most distinctive British settlements, New Plymouth, which features buildings in a uniquely English style with neat, pointed roofs and colorful facades.
11. Long Island
The main feature of the narrow and long island of Long Island is its intriguing contrast of two coasts: one of the island’s shores has a rocky terrain with caves that unexpectedly end in the sea, and the second has wide sandy beaches. In the interior of the island, gentle hills hide and are adjacent to plains. And also you finally — you will see the Blue Hole “Dina” – one of the oldest and deepest underwater attractions on the planet, the depth of which reaches about 200 meters. It is believed that the Blue Funnel was formed naturally, under the influence of rain. This happened before the Ice Age about fifteen thousand years ago. After a catastrophic cold era, the cave was flooded due to rising sea levels. Despite the conclusions of scientists, local residents prefer to believe the legend, which says that the giant funnel was made by the devil himself, who still lives at the bottom of the cave, sucking in those who dare to go down too deep.
