deep-sea fishing, bone fishing, sport fishing, and big
game fishing in the world, drawing pleasure boats and
yachts from hundreds of miles away. In fact, Valentines
has become known as the Sport Fishing Center of the
Bahamas. Record catches of tuna, wahoo, and mar-
lin have been caught and the resort holds prestigious
fishing tournaments annually.
In addition, the resort is the ideal location for boat
charters and rentals, kayaking, sailing, water skiing,
jet skiing, windsurfing, parasailing, and wake boarding;
not to mention snorkeling and scuba diving. The Valen-
tines Dive Center is PADI certified and well-equipped
to plan a dive outing for new and experienced divers,
alike. With coral reefs, grottos, underwater blow holes,
high speed drift dives, and walls and wrecks, the local
waters offer some of the best diving in the world. The
resort maintains custom-made dive boats, and has full
scuba equipment and Sea MX10 cameras available
for rent.
Valentine’s marina is the largest and most complete
marina on Harbour Island, and one of the largest in
Eleuthera. That’s why so many yacht owners make the
resort their home port of choice. The marina, which
is full service with fuel, electric, water, and Wi-Fi, won
the 2015 World Travel Award for the Bahamas’ Lead-
ing Marina.
