As previous poster pointed out, it depends a lot on what exactly you are interested in doing and what your idea of an ideal vacation is. Best of luck!

The answer to all of that is yes pretty much anywhere you stay but some places are better than others based on the group interests, size, and age range.

 

We've always stayed on Elbow Cay.  Our boat rental zone covers everything from Little Harblur to Guana and let's us do everything we want to do via boat and the island, like most others, has everything we want on it.

 

Boat and golf cart rentals are definitely something you want to book far in advance to make sure you are covered.

What are the most recommended cays to spend a couple of nights vs. day trips? How would you split this trip up, what are the must see cays? We have read that getting a boat is the best way to island hop but do we rent boats at each cay we visit (as I am sure there are boundaries) or do we rent a boat to keep for the entire trip? Recommendations on house and boat rental companies would be helpful!

If you've been affected by this development, and need to reschedule flights, here's a list of alternate airlines offering service between Florida and Abaco. 

Were you stranded or affected by Silver's closure? If you'd like to share your experiences, or you have advice for others in the same position, please feel free to share below!

The only time I have ever had a problem was when I arrived on a Sunday morning -- apparently some cab drivers take Sunday mornings off for church. If you're arriving on a Sunday, might be worth lining up a taxi in advance. Otherwise, there should be taxis waiting.
