Capital of The Bahamas' boat-building industry for almost 200 years, Man 'O War is the most water-oriented Cay in The Abacos. As a matter of fact, some boats are still totally handmade (without plans of any kind!). Whether viewed from the water or a quiet little street (no cars are allowed on this island - carts are the only permitted form of transport), its easy to see the Cays' sea-going heritage in the well-kept homes' numerous "Widow's Walks" and the wide range of nautically-oriented shops and stores lining Man 'O War's waterfront and harbour. Man 'O War is also the home of some of the finest canvas products to be found anywhere.

Man-O-War is also a DRY Island...... like Spanish Wells.
