Things to Do on Land

Things to do on land in Andros.

Andros is king when it comes to superlative natural experiences. Its 2,300 flora- and fuana-filled square miles can be explored through guided nature walks and birding tours. Spreading forests of mahogany, lignum vitae and pine, blue holes deep in the woods, nesting sea and shore birds, are all awaiting discovery. Go hunting for buried treasure and Bahamian gremlins called “chickcharnies” hiding high in the trees. Meander through ancient ruins, quaint coastal towns and villages, and shop for batik fabrics.
