 Long Island : Profile
A sophisticated marina, hotel, airstrip and clearance facilities are available at Stella Maris near the north end of Long Island.
Long Island, like Eleuthera and Cat Island, has an ocean coastline to the east, which offers deep-sea fishing and one or two anchorages in suitable weather, including Clarence Town. To visit this attractive settlement, consult the cruising guides, as it can be uncomfortable. The Flying Fish Marina can accommodate boats up to 200 feet.
The west side offers shallow water cruising with interesting settlements, creeks and bays to explore.
