Summertime . . . and the living is easy at Small Hope, Andros, Bahamas

This is my FAVORITE time of year here at Small Hope Bay Lodge, Andros Island, Bahamas. The sun shines in the morning. The seas are like glass for the morning dives - so clear that from the boat, I can look down in to 30 feet of water and tell which corals and types of fish are down below. The afternoon brings incredible tropical showers then the day is beautiful and bright once more. And the glorious starry nights are made even more amazing by the lightning shows off on the horizon. The water is between 82 and 84 degrees, perfect for a swim, snorkel or dive, day or night. All in all - Perfect!

Beach Wedding @ Small Hope

The wonderful couple Gary and Liz came to Small Hope to get married!  They were after a quite, intimate, and romantic setting, and Small Hope had all that and more.  The flower arch was built, the bouquets were made, and the outside bar was ready for the celebration.  Once the lovely bride and groom were ready, it was wedding time!!

The day was perfect; with the waves lapping at their ankles, Gary and Liz were united in holy matrimony. We're glad they enjoyed their tropical island wedding in the relaxing environment that is Small Hope!!!

Divers Keep Coming Back

Prime and Jackie hadn't been back to Small Hope Bay Lodge since 2001 but when they walked through the doors and kicked off their shoes, it was like nothing had ever changed. The couple started diving right away and catching up with the staff and family at meals. Leaving the cold weather and snow behind wasn't a hardship for the two business owners to let the world go and just focus on the beauty that is Small Hope and Andros Island! Pin It Now!
