6 Days 5 Nights | 114 NM
This six day Exumas yacht itinerary is created for guests seeking an exclusive Bahamas charter that combines powder soft sandbars, luminous shallows and quiet island anchorages. Beginning in Highbourne Cay and concluding in Nassau, your yacht follows the spine of the Exuma Cays through protected marine parks and secluded lagoons that are best explored from the water. You embark at Highbourne Cay, gateway to the northern Exumas, before cruising south into the crystal clear waters of Warderick Wells Cay and the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park. The voyage continues to Compass Cay, famous for its friendly nurse sharks and sweeping sandbars, and on to Cambridge Cay with its reef snorkelling and calm anchorages. Shroud Cay offers mangrove creeks and hidden beaches, while Normans Cay carries layers of local lore and excellent snorkelling before your final return passage to Nassau. Throughout the voyage Azuvivo arranges marina berths, park permits and tailored shore experiences, ensuring your Exumas yacht charter feels effortless from the first welcome drink to the final farewell.
