Long Island
Long Island is nearly 60 miles long and roughly 4 miles wide. This island is about 150 miles southeast of Paradise Island. There is a road that r
uns from north to south, which is lined with small villages, shops and churches. The Tropic of Cancer runs through the middle of this island. The two coasts of this island differ drastically from each other and offer rocky and steep picturesque images on the east side; and a more calm, serene, soft-white sand paradise on the west. This island, which is situated in the southern Bahamas, is considered one of Bahamas' Out Islands. Long Islands' beauty is unmatched from the sloping hills in the northeast; to the low hillsides, which start in the south and then fade away to the white flat lands where salt is produced. Local fishermen dive to spear lobster and fish. Fresh seafood is available year round and is relatively inexpensive. Farmers grow an abundance of peas, corn, pineapples, bananas and other fruits and vegetables with the fertile soil of this island. Stella Maris, located in the north of Long Island, is a famous meeting place for scuba divers and sport fishermen from around the world. Cape Santa Maria is home of one of the "World's Top 10 Beaches" known as Colum
bus Point. This beach is known for its soft, silky sands; its' beautiful fade away blue colors; its magnificent and gentle breezes, which make it great for sailing; the steady rays of the easy sun; and the gentle, yet consistent tides that provide an elegant but slightly passive resistance to your body. Vacationers will love this island for its two contrasting coasts, for its' soft and silky beautiful beaches, for its' scuba diving playground, Long Island snorkeling, sport fishing, inexpensive yet wonderful seafood cuisine, picturesque rocky descents on the e ast side, friendly people, wonderful shops, and the islands' gentle breeze.
