Historic Island Retreat on Little Exuma Island
Welcome to Turtle Creek Inn By The Sea! This is a lovely oceanview studio apartment that has a nicely appointed kitchenette with a refrigerator, toaster oven, two-burner cook top and coffee maker. Forbes Hill beach is a 4 minute drive and Tropic of Cancer beach is a 8 minute drive.
The gardens are lush with native trees, fruits and flowers which attract a wide array of birds and butterflies. The property lies on a sweet tidal creek where we have our private dock for kayaking & paddle boarding tours.
.Activities available include world class kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, boating, and beach excursions. We can outsource deep sea fishing charters and bonefish flats fishing excursions.
We are uniquely situated in a location to offer a wide variety of kayaking terrains for all skill levels. There are numerous islands, mangrove marshes and trails surrounded by flats with crystal clear water and an abundance of marine life.
The beaches are a destination in themselves, offering an opportunity to walk, swim, picnic, play, work-out in a natural tidal current, snorkel, or just relax!
