Scotia - Waterfront vacation rental home on White Sound, Elbow Cay, Abaco, Bahamas.
|
More Info: How could a vacation at Scotia go? It would probably begin by flying into Marsh Harbour where you clear customs. From there you take a taxi to the ferry dock. On the way, ask the driver to find out if there is a charter to White Sound. If there is, it can probably be shared, or you might just want to charter for yourself. If you are comfortable navigating new waters you could have your rental boat waiting for you in Marsh Harbour. That taken care of, you would then have the driver take you to one of the two supermarkets, where the taxi will wait while you shop, or you might get another taxi when you are through. Once on the ferry, have the captain call Sweeting Construction and let our caretakers, Ricky and Betty Sweeting, know where to meet you.
Nearby Attractions: On the first day you might take a camera tour of the island. A right turn at the foot of our lane will take you up on the ridge where you will look left to the ocean and right to the Sound. Continue to the end of the island, where you can look across Tilloo Cut. Then circle by Tahiti Beach. On your way back you might want to stop off at the Abaco Inn for something refreshing, and talk with the staff about dinner. Both the Abaco Inn and Rudy's Place will pick you up and bring you home if you have dinner there.
If you're really ambitious, you might then want to walk into Hopetown. Be sure to go by way of the footpath as this goes along the shoreline and cuts half a mile off the interior road route. The town itself has several nice places for lunch or dinner: Hopetown Harbour Lodge, Club Soleil, or the "fast food" Bahamas style places like Captain Jack's or Harbor View. Hopetown has several small grocery stores, drug stores, gift shops, a surf and sail shop, and the Dive Shop, all open weekdays but not Sunday.
A days outing to Man-O-War should not be missed with a thought to buying some of the well made items at The Sail Shop. The days will pass all too fast as you occupy yourself with whatever suits your fancy, be it chartered trips, snorkeling forays or fishing ventures. Just beach walking, shell collecting, sunning and enjoying the "nothing needs doing" atmosphere is enough for some. The pace of life is as you set it.
Amenities: HOUSE -Two bedrooms: 1 queen bed, 2 twin beds -Two ceramic tile bathrooms -Living room -Dining room / game area -Tables lower level -Large kitchen -Utility room -Chest freezer available to monthly renters
RENTAL -No children under 8
BRING -PASSPORTS ARE A MUST! -Dress code is very casual, no jackets for men - shorts and bathing suits for day wear, sweaters and/or windbreaker for cool evenings or on the water. -Flashlights, batteries, camera and plenty of film -Fishing, scuba, snorkeling equipment (some can be rented).

Activities - Things to do
Cozumel's Beaches & Snorkeling - Cozumel Mexico Cozumel's beaches vary from scalloped bays and inlets to wide wind-swept swathes of powdery sand. The calm waters of the western side of the island are ideal for swimming, snorkeling, windsurfing, and sunbathing. The desolate, eastern shore is lashed by waves and steady winds, although there are some lovely escarpments and bays safe for swimming.

Caribbean Travel Tip Bringing Your Own Boat or Plane If you plan to arrive in the Caribbean in your own boat or plane, contact the embassy, consulate, or tourist office of each country you plan to visit to learn what is required for entry and exit. Besides title of ownership, most ports of entry will require proof of insurance coverage for the country you are entering. Some countries require a temporary import permit for your boat or plane.
Authorities in the Caribbean are familiar with U.S. regulations for documentation of air and sea craft. They will detain improperly documented craft that enter their territory. In some countries, authorities will confiscate firearms found on a boat or plane unless the owner or master can show proof that U.S. licensing and export procedures have been followed. In addition, some countries impose stiff prison terms for the importation of illegal firearms.
