Nassau, Bahamas – Just four months after Hurricane Dorian left a devastating impact on the northern islands in The Bahamas, The Abacos – a 120-mile chain of islands and cays –are already witnessing a wave of progress.
Many hotels, ferry services, airlines, tour operators and attractions resumed business in The Abacos, a destination beloved for its natural beauty, white sand beaches and world-class sailing. While Marsh Harbour, Central and Northern Abaco and several cays throughout the destination are in the midst of rebuilding, several businesses are already welcoming guests with open arms.
“Though the road to recovery has been challenging, we are confident that The Abacos will be back stronger and better than ever before,” said Minister of Tourism & Aviation, Dionisio D’Aguilar.
The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism & Aviation recently optimized bahamas.com/abaco to accurately inform travelers on what is open for business including status updates of hotel and resort re-openings, airport updates, operational ferries and a user-friendly map that will help visitors plan their trips to areas of the island that are welcoming guests.
