The Liberty Clipper will sail along the island chains in the Bahamas each day. Each night will be spent anchored off a different island as we explore our way through this island chain. Depending upon the itinerary of the cruise you join us for, we will visit remote fishing villages, historic forts and deserted islands with private sand beaches where you can stroll and swim in serenity.
The principal islands that the ship will visit during your cruise may include the Berry Islands, Andros Island, Eleuthera Island and Abaco Island. We never know which islands we will visit as the Captain will determine the ultimate course based upon the wind direction and any exciting events that we know of in the area. Each of our vacations is unique and special in this aspect. The islands are all known for something special:
Andros Island: Andros Island is the Bahamas' natural wonder. This island is home to the world's 3rd larges barrier reef; is a migratory bird paradise and lies along the "Tounge of the Ocean" (a large protected sea to the East) where whales, marlin and dolphin abound. Andros Island is the largest Island of the Bahamas and where the Liberty Clipper spends a large portion of her time cruising. This island offers amazing wildlife and is steeped in history while still providing charming coastal towns that present opportunities to explore and pick up some local-made gifts and souvenirs.
Berry Islands: This cluster of 30 cays is very secluded and offers amazing "swim ashore" beaches and spectacular snorkeling on these largely uninhabited islands.
The Exumas: The Exumas are a 120-mile-long island chain-within-the-chain of the Out Islands, with the Exuma Cays scattered in a long line extending north-east toward New Providence from Great Exuma. The Cays are the most exotic of the Out Islands, a collection of tiny jewels set in the aquamarine and sapphire of the most beautiful water you’ve ever imagined. A short distance from Great Exuma is a barrier cay that protects the main island from the Atlantic. Stocking Island features spectacular views from atop its high bluff and a series of idyllic beaches separated by limestone promontories. Also in the islands is the famous Thunderball Cave – seen in the James Bond film of the same name. This is where you can put on a mask and snorkel and duck inside a small hollow cay that’s filled with friendly fish accustomed to being hand-fed.
The Abacos: The Abacos are locally considered the "sailing capital of the world." When the winds are favorable, the Liberty Clipper will sail these islands moving from island to island. The Cays of the Abacos were settled by English colonists and still remain a very New England look and feel with while embracing a Bahamian flair of pastel colors.
Eleuthera Island: Eleuthera Island extends in a North-South direction and is 110-miles long while only two miles wide! It's endless white beaches, colonial villages and pineapple fields always charm visitors.
You cruise will take you to a new town or new island each day after we've sailed the warm tropical waters. The Liberty Clipper will return to her berth on Nassau early Sunday morning at the completion of your cruise - if you're hooked, you can always extend and stay with us another week in paradise!
