THE BERRY ISLANDS The Islands: What Makes them Different
A dangling chain of cays and islets on the eastern edge of the Great Bahama Bank, the unspoiled and serene Berry Islands begin 56km (35 miles) northwest of New Providence (Nassau), 242km (150 miles) east of Miami. This 30-island archipelago is known to sailors, fishermen, yachtspeople, Jack Nicklaus, and a Movie Star or two, as well as to the beachcombers who love its pristine sands. .....
World-Class Fishing and Nudism
As a center of fishing, the Berry Islands are second only to Bimini. At the tip of the Tongue of the Ocean, also known as TOTO, world-record-setting big-game fish are found, along with endless flats (the shallow bodies of water near the shore where bonefish congregate). In the "Berries," you can find your own tropical paradise islet and enjoy -- buck ass naked -- totally isolated white-sand beaches and palm-fringed shores. Some of the best shell collecting in The Bahamas is found on the beaches of the Berry Islands and in their shallow-water flats.
Movie Stars Frequented "Berries" in 50's
The largest island within the Berry Islands is Great Harbour Cay, which sprawls over 1,520 hectares (3,754 acres) of sand, rock, and scrub. Development here received a great deal of publicity when Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., was connected with its investors. It became a multimillion-dollar resort for jet-setters who occupied waterfront town houses and villas overlooking the golf course or marina. Cary Grant, Brigitte Bardot, and other stars have all romped on the 12km (7 1/2 miles) of almost-solitary beachfront you can still find here. (See a WEBSITE that talks about the Berries, at this time, considered a "Millionaires' Paradise". Also, a group led by Latin Songtress Shakira, as well as Antonio de La Rua, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd fame, Alejandro Sanz, Arturo Rubinstein have purchased Bonds Cay in the Berries, with hopes of future developments.
