Peterson Cay is a protected marine park — avoid anchoring on reefs and refrain from touching coral. Operators aim to minimize wake in shallow canal habitats.
Grand Bahama sits on ancient carbonate banks; the Lucayan peoples were the islands' original inhabitants, and modern Freeport grew rapidly in the mid-20th century as tourism and trade expanded.
