Welcome to Acklins · Southern Bahamas

ACKLINS

Untouched. Exclusive. Adventurous.

An untouched Out Island experience of secluded beaches, turquoise waters, bonefishing, boating, diving, local culture and extraordinary adventure.

Discover Acklins

Where the Bahamas still feels undiscovered

Acklins, Crooked Island and Long Cay form a secluded island group around the Bight of Acklins, a vast, shallow lagoon of turquoise water. Come for boating, bonefishing, snorkelling and diving, for birdwatching, and for historic and natural sites you’ll often have entirely to yourself.
