Grand Bahama, just 60 miles east of Palm Beach, is a modern,
commercial center and the second most populated island in the Bahamas with over 41,000 residents. Freeport/Lucaya
are bustling tourist areas about midway down the 530 square mile island. Only two other inhabited areas exist on
the island. West End on the western tip and McLeans Town near the east end. Thick brush and forest cover most of
the island. Great nightlife exists in the hotel areas with casinos, shows, and entertainment on the wharf area,
where there are bands, dancing, shopping, and watering holes.
The airport is located in Freeport and flights are regular and numerous from the U.S. and from throughout the islands.
Transportation is readily available by taxi, bus service, and rental cars. A rental car on Grand Bahama is nice
as there are nice scenic drives to get you away from the crowd.
Diving is out of the Lucaya area and offers reefs, wrecks, blue holes and specialty shark dives. There are a number
of operators out of Lucaya that offer great diving packages. |
