The Abacos are a string of Bahamian islands located approximately 175 miles east of Palm Beach, Florida. The "mainland" is Great Abaco, third largest island in the Bahamas, with a string of cays a few miles offshore stretching along the eastern side of Great Abaco creating the protected Sea of Abaco.  British Loyalists first settled the Abacos during the War of Independence from the United States and today this yachtsman’s haven is renowned for its sports fishing, beach resorts, bed and breakfast inns, waterfront residences, condominiums and marinas.
