Planning a beach vacation to Exuma

A few practical anchors before you commit to dates:

  • When to go: December-April, those shoulder months give you the sweet spot of great weather without peak-season prices.
  • Peak season (avoid if you can): December-March. Expect higher resort rates and fuller beaches.
  • Hurricane window: June-November. Travel insurance is worth the small extra spend if you're booking in this range.
  • Airport: GGT - Exuma International Airport (George Town): most major US cities have direct routes, which matters for a short beach vacation.
  • Budget check: plan for about $350-600 per person. That covers accommodations, meals, activities, and a couple of excursions.
  • Language: English.
