I think the Abacos suck! The water is cold, there's no cruising community and weekenders who rent houses race around on the boats that come with the rental making for a lot of noise and wake.
Spend your time in the Exumas, Conception, Rum & Plana Cays. I asked the Admiral to bury my ashes in the Plana Cays and take the GPS coordinates. If family ever wants to visit me they have to go there.
Abacos, my least favorite area.
IMHO
