White Sound Location

White Sound provides natural protection from the prevailing winds, creating calm conditions for marina berthing. The sound's position on the western side of Green Turtle Cay shields it from Atlantic swells, while the marked channel offers straightforward navigation.

The historic settlement of New Plymouth wraps around the opposite shore of the sound, accessible by water taxi or dinghy. Its pastel Loyalist-era buildings, local restaurants, and the Albert Lowe Museum reward exploration.

Cruising Green Turtle Cay

Green Turtle Cay offers some of the finest cruising in the Abacos, with deserted beaches, excellent snorkeling, and protected anchorages surrounding the island. The cay's position in the northern Abacos makes it a natural waypoint between Spanish Cay and Treasure Cay or Marsh Harbour to the south.
