Default Bahamas Deserted Island?

My wife and I am planning a trip to the bahamas and would like to know of
any reccomendations for a charter service that takes you out to an island
for the day and then picks you up...Lunch etc.

There are lots of islands that are uninhabited and would work for this
Shroud Cay is one and Allen's Cay is another. However the charter
service to take you out to them is the problem. I think there are
charter services from Paradise Island that do that kind of thing, but
it is a whole group that goes. Shroud isn't that enticing, but I know
that there are charters to Allen's to see the iguanas.

I'd suggest possibly flying to and staying on Highborne Cay or
possibly Norman's Cay or Frazier's Hog Cay. Highborne has so few
people on it that you could be quite private. I'm sure one of the
guys on FHC would be able to take you to another little cay. The
problem there would be getting to the cay.

Default Bahamas Deserted Island?

The Peace and Plenty Hotel in Exuma, Bahamas has a shuttle out to Stocking
Island across the Elizabeth Harbour... The island is not completely
deserted but about as close as you can get....

Default Bahamas Deserted Island?

Ramora Bay Club on Harbour Island was wher my new bride and I went to a
deserted island for the day, they gave us lunch and a botle of wine to take.
That was 20 years ago, not sure if they still do it. I now live in New
Providence.
