Hi from Jim and Liz....................


We both had a great time at Small Hope Bay Lodge! 


Jim Dive master Dennis and Liz

The place itself is amazing but what adds even more is THE STAFF!!! 

I can’t begin to say enough about them. They are all so friendly and multi-talented, extremely nice young people to help you enjoy your stay at Small Hope.

We mostly snorkeled, relaxed, ate very well, went to Captain Bills Blue Hole and played cribbage!! 
Did a lot of hammocking as well!


Fantastic reefs, with great visibility, teeming with fish of all colors. From the divers we talked to they all said the dives were fantastic! You must do the Shark Emporium Dive or snorkel as I did a memorable experience to be sure!

Kudos to Jeff for offering the opportunity to enjoy Small Hope Bay Lodge, for being such a friendly, gracious host!!



Thanks to all Jeff, Nicky, Mel, Loren, Aidan, Leyna, Antonio, Joe, Bhurna, Austin, Abba, Dennis And thanks to Renaundo and ALL of his kitchen staff for the great meals!

I know I’ve left some out by mistake but you get the idea!

Come to Small Hope Bay Lodge you will LOVE IT!!!

North Andros land tour with your guide- Dennis


 Wanting to know more about the Big Yard, they call “Andros Island”?

Find out about the history of the island, stop to see just a few of the inland blue holes & learn how they came to be named, hear about the logging days, & learn some folk laws and myths. 




 You will see some local working farms which provide Small Hope with fresh fruits & veggies! 


















Explore Captain Henry Morgan’s cave were all the treasure is said to be hidden, or for the more adventurous we will go and see Evan’s cave and blue hole- a small walking trail.


We hit the open road with a cooler of fruits, sodas and drinks and have a great afternoon.
