Hopetown Lighthouse, Elbow Cay

There are so many: Rent a Cottage, Elbow Cay

 travelgirl3 Says:  We didn't stay in Hopetown on this visit, although would certainly consider it another time. Hopetown is a little more 'cosmopolitan' than Guana Cay which is considered somewhat 'rural', even by Abaco standards. Like all the islands of Abaco, many cottage rentals are...

Iggy Biggy: Funky Little Gift Shop

Iggy Biggy: Funky Little Gift Shop, Elbow Cay

But,...
