We think Abaco in the Bahamas is one of the most beautiful spots on earth but we know that it will not be everyone's idea of paradise. We get many questions on the Abaco Community Bulletin Board where it is quite obvious from the questions asked, that the writer is looking at the wrong place to spend their vacation.

Abaco is probably the wrong choice for a vacation destination if you:-

Like a wild evening on the town
Prefer a wide choice of cuisine
Think a casino is important
Know the kids want to watch TV
Wish to be entertained by professional performers
Look forward to shopping in fancy department stores
Believe that, even if it is raining, there is always something to do
Think the hotel will have a "Kid's Club" or babysitting
Expect a lifeguard at the beach
Need to keep in close contact with the office
Expect room service and laundry
Would like to visit the local museums and parks
Are looking forward to learning limbo dancing

Abaco is probably the right vacation destination for if you :-

Like reading a book in the sun for hours
Enjoy boating or fishing
Can smile and say "hello" to total strangers you pass on the street
Have a family that can entertain itself
Don't mind sand in your shoes
Think 'Happy Hour' is watching the sunset with your family
Are glad you can't find a copy of "USA Today" or the "WSJ" anywhere
Enjoy that the fastest way to town is in a rented golf cart or on a bicycle
Find a tour of "Downtown" takes only 20 minutes on foot
Love snorkeling, scuba diving or swimming in the salty sea
Can handle the flight home leaving an hour or more late due to sudden bad weather
Think it's fun when the power goes out for the third time in two hours
Believe the highlight of the day is finding something neat on the beach
