Flights into Great Harbor Cay berry’s

Looking to fly from south Florida to Great Harbor Cay in the Berry islands. When I was running yachts I would fly through a few companies. Not sure if Yellow Air Taxi is still operating at all. What about twin air calypso?

What small puddle jumper airlines can one pickup out of Fort Lauderdale executive or tamiami airport?

Flights into Great Harbor Cay berry’s

So I got out there and was able to fly on Makers Air. Great spot to avoid COVID crowds and still get some vacation. Flights were about 300 each way.

Just me and some friends on the beach. Click image for larger version

I love Great Harbor. It's got to be the best spot in the Bahamas. Spanish Wells if you need a bit more of a town.

Spanish Wells is a dry island. I’ve have always found the dry island to have odd ball locals.

Last time there, one of them tried to sell me booze like it was crack. Not sure if anyone else agrees.

I don't understand how it can be considered a dry island? Buddha's is pretty much dead center of the island and serves drinks, also has a liquor store. Plus there is a second liquor store a short walk away

Mind blown! I literally looked up Buddha’s to confirm that we were talking about the same place. And apparently it’s been there for years!!! Good change for the thirsty sailor.
