Great Guana Cay

Little Bahama Bank
Miles of shallow, sandy sea floor creates surreal patterns of light blue water and underwater dunes.
Marsh Harbour Town

The right side is superior for tracking the Florida coastline for a longer duration. It is particularly good for mid-morning flights when the sun is high, illuminating the shallow sandbars of the Little Bahama Bank. Watch for the intricate 'veins' of deep water channels cut into the shallow banks.
