Where GAIL FORCE II operates
The Bahamas
Explore destinationPlaces GAIL FORCE II can take you
The Exumas
A 100-mile chain of 365 cays stretching south from Nassau — the heart of Bahamas yachting. Each cay offers something different: uninhabited sandbars, protected reefs, nurse sharks you can swim with at Compass Cay, and the famous swimming pigs of Big Major Cay, which wade into the water to meet arriving tenders.
Thunderball Grotto, Staniel Cay
An underwater cave system accessible at low tide, lit by shafts of light through holes in the rock above. Featured in two James Bond films. One of the best snorkelling sites in the Caribbean and reachable only by boat.
Nassau & Paradise Island
The natural embarkation point. Nassau's colonial harbour, pastel-painted streets and historic forts give way quickly to open water. A short sail south and the crowds disappear entirely.
The Abacos
A sheltered chain of barrier cays in the northern Bahamas with calm, protected sailing waters, British colonial architecture and a relaxed pace. Hope Town's candy-striped lighthouse is one of the most photographed in the Caribbean.
Dean's Blue Hole, Long Island
At 202 metres deep, the deepest known ocean blue hole in the world. A dramatic natural phenomenon — the water transitions from turquoise to deep navy as the bottom falls away beneath you. Accessible by tender from anchor.
Harbour Island
Famous for its pink sand beaches, the colour produced by crushed coral fragments mixed with the white sand. A small, unhurried island of colonial pastel houses and excellent restaurants — best reached by superyacht and explored on foot or by golf buggy.
