Columbus Point, Long Island in Poetry: This is My Bahamas!
Blue Sound is a beautiful place to visit in Long Island, Bahamas. Unfortunately you won't find information about it by searching for Blue Sound. Its common name is know as Columbus Point or Columbus Monument in honour of the man who lays claim to our discovery: Christopher-Cum-Buck-Us. Check out the Domestic Tourist travel blog to explore My Bahamas a little more:

Bahamas best beach ... found at Cape Santa Maria Resort, Long Island
If you're in search of an incredible beach getaway, look no further than Cape Santa Maria Beach Resort and Villas, on the Northern tip of Long Island in the beautiful Out Islands of the Bahamas. While it might take a little bit of extra effort to get to Long Island...trust me, it's so very worth it! This is not an island where Carnival Cruise docks for the day....and while it's featured on travel sites such as Lonely Planet and Fodor's...it still has managed to stay below the radar (translation: no crowds and having one of the most beautiful beaches in the world all to yourself!!)....

* The amazing staff at Cape Santa Maria Beach Resort
* The Columbus Monument (Northern tip of the island) - This monument to Columbus' landfall is located at Long Bay, so named for Columbus' long boat. This is the point where he came ashore. A monument placed on the floor of the ocean in Long Bay marks the exact spot where Columbus dropped anchor on October 12th, 1492. On the beach, a simple white cross commemorates the first land discovered in the West Indies.
* Dean's Blue Hole - Worlds second deepest blue hole reaching a depth of 663 feet!
* Max's Conch Bar - Cabana-style restaurant is well known locally and internationally for mouth-watering conch salad, grilled conch and fish, beef and other native dishes.
* Secret Sand Bar - talk to the staff at Cape Santa Maria to have a boat trip setup to this incredible sandbar and be prepared to be blown away!
* Secret Sea Cave - see Sand Bar above. Cape Santa Maria will show you this incredible location.
* Hamilton's Cave - One of the largest caves in The Bahamas, it is very spacious with passages that are at least 50 feet wide, and the ceiling is over 10 feet high. Lucayan artifacts were discovered in this cave system in 1935.
* Smacky and the Boys (Traditional Rake and Scrape local band) - Kick your shoes off and shake your boonggy island style to Bahamian rake-n-scrape!!
* And one of the most epic bonfires on the beach ever :)
Cape Santa Maria is a special place that somehow remains a hidden secret. Go and visit now, before the secret gets out !!

The REAL History Of Christopher Columbus
Monday, October 12th is Columbus Day, which we have celebrated in this country since the eighteenth century… and that’s probably long enough. When you find out the actual facts of what Columbus did when he got to America, you’ll find one of the darkest chapters in American history. Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola (Think Tank), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
Second, Columbus wasn't a hero. When he set foot on that sandy beach in the Bahamas on October 12, 1492, Columbus discovered that the islands were inhabited by friendly, peaceful people called the Lucayans, Taínos and Arawaks. Writing in his diary, Columbus said they were a handsome, smart and kind people. He noted that the gentle Arawaks were remarkable for their hospitality. They offered to share with anyone and when you ask for something, they never say no, he said. The Arawaks had no weapons; their society had neither criminals, prisons nor prisoners. They were so kind-hearted that Columbus noted in his diary that on the day the Santa Maria was shipwrecked, the Arawaks labored for hours to save his crew and cargo. The native people were so honest that not one thing was missing.
Columbus was so impressed with the hard work of these gentle islanders, that he immediately seized their land for Spain and enslaved them to work in his brutal gold mines. Within only two years, 125,000 (half of the population) of the original natives on the island were dead.”*

Christopher Columbus Landing Site
On his 2nd trip in 1493, he landed here on St. Croix Island. He anchored his ships just outside the reef, rowed ashore in a smaller boat with a small landing party, and got in a fight with the people who lived there.

Exploring Beautiful Long Island Bahamas S3Ep12

We rent a car to tour the island and see the Columbus Monument, Adderley Plantation ruins, the Shrimp Hole, Dean's Blue Hole, historic churches in Clarence Town, and one of the most beautiful beaches we've ever seen. Then we cap off our visit by attending the island's Mutton Festival.
