Freeport: a Portal to the Vast Playground of an Island Explorer


Recognized globally as The Bahamas' second-largest city, Freeport on Grand Bahama Island is a vast playground for the island explorer.  Immerse yourself in the lap of luxury at high-end resorts, embark on transformative journeys exploring cultural and historical gems, and marvel at the enchanting landscapes of ecological wonders that surround this captivating destination.
 

Owl's Hole

Owl’s Hole is a sparkling sinkhole in The Bahamian limestone measuring around 30 feet in diameter. Expert to find the surface of the water at about 25 feet down in the hole, give or take a few feet based on prevailing rainfall levels around the time of your visit. During certain months of the year (April, May) you may even catch a glimpse of the cave’s fuzzy owlets tucked under the lip of the ceiling. Surrounded by lush vegetation, Owls Hole is a tranquil escape where visitors can marvel at the breathtaking formations and immerse themselves in the serene beauty of this hidden gem while enjoying a plunge if they dare to jump in.

Spanning acres of pristine wilderness, the park offers a journey through diverse ecosystems, from mangrove swamps to pine forests.

Lucayan National Park seamlessly blends adventure and tranquility, providing a sanctuary for those seeking a deeper connection with nature.
