The Bones of Abacos

Summary The Abacos of The Caribbean are relatively undeveloped. The mostly still intact reefs and mangroves are crucial for fish reproduction. The Abacos still offer a wild, authentic and native Caribbean experience. Nassau for example has been developed, and her once great fisheries have been all but destroyed. We travel to Abacos to learn about a great development for tourists and locals that help promote sustainable economies and reefs and mangroves and fish. We explore the island by air, land and sea while fly fishing for bone fish that are still numerous and large. We interview legendary artist and fly fishing guide Vaughn Cochran and his Black Fly operation, as well as conservationist, guide, chef, minister and raconteur "Clint", and we interview the visionary developer/architect of what amounts to a whole new village practicing sustainable economies in Abaco. This "village" should become a template for all future development in the fragile Caribbean and elsewhere.
