Same as here in Maine, or anywhere I guess. So you can rub elbows with the hordes in Georgetown(we did and liked that) or sail away to Cat Island, and you may not see another sailboat along the entire length( we didn't see a one). We mixed the two sides up and really enjoyed the Bahamas that we got to see.

The only problem is going south was almost always under power, but coming home was great sailing. If you're in a hurry you may not get to sail as much as you like.
