Perhaps
the most interesting place
of call is Mt. Alvernia,
the highest elevation in the
country at 206ft. above sea
level.
The hill once served as the
hermitage of Father Jerome
Hawes who settled
on the island in 1939 where
he built a miniature monastery
and
hand-carved steps out of solid
rock.
“Find yourself in Cat Island” at
Greenwood Beach Resort where
you can find relaxation, solitude
and tranquility. This sixteen
room resort is set on eight
miles of pink sand beach - a
beautiful
place seemingly set back in
time. One of the few places left
that
holds onto the essence of a
by gone era the way The Bahamas
used to be, untouched and beautiful
- thatch-roofed cabanas that
provide outdoor dining and
cooking
areas (evening time bonfires)
palm trees and hammocks that
maintain the ambience of peace
and tranquility. Sammy Ts and
Fernandez Bay Village are great
lodging options with every
amenity and water activity mentionable
right at your finger tips.
Cat Island, Bahamas is perfect
for so many: the consummate explorer
looking to discover his own way
off the beaten path and who does
not need sight-seeing maps and
tour guides, for the traveler
in need of quiet soul searching
seclusion or for families in
search of the ultimate beach
vacation! |
