Peace & Plenty, Great Exuma

Filed in archive on February 17, 2007

I have sailed among many of the islands in the Bahamian chain. On one sailing trip, I discovered Peace and Plenty, a small 32-room resort on Great Exuma. If you really want to get away from it all, this place fits the bill. The Exumas are magnets for sailors. It's for pure escapism where crowds don't exist.

700 islands and 2000 cays comprise the Islands of the Bahamas, which are scattered over 90,000 miles. The Exumas stretch for more than 90 miles north to South. If you're not a sailor, Georgetown, the capital of Great Exuma, can be reached by US Airways.
