Coopers Town and Powell Cay are praised in cruising guides as a nice pair. You have the unspoiled wilderness of Powell Cay with the convenience of restaurants and provisions in Coopers Town, less than three miles apart across the Sea of Abaco. The problem was that because of bad weather we spent four days on the convenient side and only one in the fun and beautiful side.<\/p>\n

Coopers Town<\/h3>\n

Coopers Town is the northernmost town of Great Abaco Island. It’s a nondescript village of less than 1000 inhabitants. The ones we met were amazingly friendly, but that’s no longer a surprise in these lands. The shoreline runs straight on that part of the island, so there’s no harbor. And no beaches. Not much to do, really, other than buying groceries in one of the two convenience stores, and taking refuge from west winds.<\/p>\n

Powell Cay<\/h3>\n

Powell Cay is a small, uninhabited barrier island with a good anchorage (as long as the wind doesn’t blow from the west), beautiful beaches, and the most spectacular trail we hiked in all of Abaco.<\/p>\n
