Grand Bahama - East End of Island Drive Description

The driving tour from Freeport to McLeans Town at the east end of Grand Bahama Island is 50mi/80km in each direction. There are a pair of roads, one on the south coast and another along the middle of the island to make a circuit.

At 6mi/9km from Freeport, the road crosses the Grand Lucayan Waterway (lowest bridge 26ft/8m), built for the benefit of boaters.
