Acklins/Crooked Island is a natural lure for fish and fishermen alike

Acklins Island

They say good things come in small packages, and truer words couldn't be spoken about Acklins, a lesser known island that's just 92 square miles and four miles across at its widest point. The island hugs the Bight of Acklins, a small but famous lagoon.

Although the population is scarce, with just over 400 residents, there is plenty to do on Acklins Island. Searching for seclusion? Breathtaking beaches, unusual rock formations and scenic plant and animal life make Acklins Island a nature lover's dream. An exotic location, Acklins is for the traveller seeking solace. In other words, you'll be making your own adventures on this quiet island with rugged terrain and little development.

The charm of Acklins Island goes beyond the scenery, especially if you're searching for a snorkelling trip or dream fishing package. People come to Acklins for serious scuba diving and snorkelling, and even more serious fishing. It may not be known as a tourist destination, but Acklins Island is home to bonefish and big game fishing alike.

If you're looking for a Bahamas holiday that's more about fishing, diving and snorkelling and less about shopping and socializing, Acklins Island is a place to get lost and love it.

The natural, pristine setting features miles of beautiful, untouched white sand beaches and other incredible sights. Birds frequent the cliffs and reefs. The limestone caves are magical. Coral gardens and reefs are waiting to be explored by divers. And the tidal flats and deep creeks are a fisherman's dream come true.
