Regatta Time in Abaco

26° 46.8′ N · 77° 20.2′ W · approximate

The Abacos' week-long summer regatta: cruising and racing boats sail cay to cay — traditionally Green Turtle, Great Guana, Marsh Harbour, Hope Town and Little Harbour — racing one day and partying the next, ending with the 'Cheeseburger in Paradise' beach party at Fiddle Cay.

Practical

Position is White Sound, Green Turtle Cay (approx), where the 2026 listing says the series starts. The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism listed 'Regattas in The Abacos' for June 20-28, 2026, starting at Green Turtle Cay and continuing to Great Guana Cay, Marsh Harbour, Elbow Cay and Little Harbour (contact info@regattasintheabacos.com, 242-359-6046). Historically late June to early July over nine days (e.g. June 26-July 4, 2019). The old regattatimeinabaco.com domain now redirects elsewhere — confirm the current year's schedule with the organisers. Book slips and moorings early: marinas fill and summer is inside hurricane season.
