SOLSTICE has a private dock in the canals of Coral Harbour on the South side of New Providence. Coral Harbour is a quiet Bahamian neighborhood with an out-island feel, conveniently located 10 minutes by taxi from the Nassau International Airport. With a beach across the street and world-class dive and snorkel sites a mere 30 minutes away, this is a great location to start or end your charter. A charming local beach bar and restaurant is just down the road, and a lovely bay anchorage (subject to weather) is a mere hour away by sail. Dockage at Coral Harbour is included in the charter fee. See photos at www.yachtsolstice.com/coralharbour.html. |
