Cruisers Season in George Town is Truly Something Special!  

Each year, beginning around late November, early December, the beautiful waters of George Town, Exuma come alive as cruisers begin making their way and arrive on their sail and power vessels.  Special holiday gatherings and meals are a must do, most you will find on Volleyball Beach around the picnic tables.  The cruising season continues through beginning May, then they begin to travel to their next destination. Whether you're anchoring for a few days or spending an entire season, you'll discover why so many cruisers return to George Town year after year. 

Cruiser Net Radio Program.  During Mid December on Channel 72, cruisers begin waking up to our VHF radio program. Tune in daily at 8am for useful information including weather, cruiser arrivals/departures, local and cruiser event news, any resources you may need, and many other useful topics. 

Beach Church.  Every Sunday at 9:30am, cruisers hold a Non Denominational Christian service located on Volleyball Beach. This service is run by volunteers, serving coffee and baked goods afterwards. We use bibles donated by sailors. Cruisers are welcome to give a 10-15  minute message - speak to one of the beach church elders to arrange this. 

Activities & Sports.  Cruisers enjoy activities together all year round! Listen to the morning net to hear updates or ask about what's going on during your stay. Some fun activities include: Pickleball, Yoga, Water Aerobics, Poker/Texas Hold 'Em, and a weekly walking group exploring the amazing trails on Stocking Island! 

Lazy River. One of the most amazing day trips just south of George Town is to the beautiful lazy river where the Harbour meets the Ocean. Some of our cruisers plan flotilla day trips throughout the season, where numbers of us travel by dinghy to this special place. Listen or ask on our Cruiser Net Radio Program for details.  

Movie Night Under the Stars.  There's nothing better than watching a great movie beneath the Bahamian night sky! Join us for movie night on Volleyball Beach, Stocking Island, hosted by our Director Neal Harvey aboard Harvest Moon. Bring your lawn chair or a cozy blanket, settle into the sand, and enjoy a movie on the big screen. It's a perfect way to meet fellow cruisers, and spend an unforgettable evening with friends. Stay tuned to the morning Net for periodic showings throughout the cruiser season. 

Flotillas to Nearby Islands.  Many cruisers meet for the first time in George Town, become instant friends and decide to sail to nearby islands together! Our cruiser community is a one of a kind network of helpful and knowledgeable sailors ready to explore with others. Just jump on our morning Cruiser Net Radio Program to ask if any cruisers would like to put a flotilla together. Many travel in groups to the Ragged Islands and other amazing islands for exploration. 

Weekly Walking Group. Join our seasoned group of cruisers for a walk through the many paths on Stocking Island. Learn about when the paths were carved out, the vast amount of existing vegetation on the island and the local history. Below are the Stocking Island maps.
