Real Cruisers, Real Experience in the Bahamas
When it comes to cruising the Bahamas, we don’t just write about it—we’ve lived it. Six out of eight members of The Boat Galley team have spent months at a time exploring the islands by boat. We’ve navigated through shifting sandbars, waited for good light to enter tricky cuts, and learned which anchorages offer the best protection in changing weather. We’ve hunted down provisions, water, ATMs and Wi-Fi all along the way -- and we'll help you find them too.
Our firsthand experience means we understand the real challenges of cruising the Bahamas—and we’ve already done the legwork so you don’t waste a minute of your trip. Your vacation time is too valuable to spend stressing over logistics. Let our resources help you make the most of every day on the water.
