Exuma History - Failure of the Cotton Culture Exuma History The Lucayan Indians The Loyalists from America Failure of the Cotton Culture ... Independence The beginning of the 19th Century introduced to Exuma (and to the other islands of the Bahamas) the third, and tragic, turning point in its history: the failure of cotton crops. It was a slow, creeping catastrophe for the Loyalists and from this time on their fortunes took a steady downward course. The original soil of Exuma had limited capacity at best with only a thin layer of topsoil atop coral sand or harder coral base material. While these conditions supported some virgin growth, virtually all the soil was removed as the Loyalists cleared the land for their cotton fields. As a result the soil was then exposed, vulnerable to high winds, the occasional downpours and the rare hurricanes that beset the island. The land was then overplanted and exhausted with no means to revitalize it and the weakened plants also became infested with chenille bug, a caterpillar-like worm that turned the cotton fibers a reddish color.

Changes in L'attitudes Bahamian culture is like no other. It has embraced a panorama of native customs of the indigenous "Indian" people who populated The Islands Of The Bahamas over the eons. Then Bahamian culture suddenly underwent an abrupt change beginning in 1648 when English Puritans settled on the island of Eleuthera. It has further evolved over the past four centuries, witnessing the arrival of Bermudan slaves and free blacks, British Loyalists (accompanied by slaves) fleeing America after the War of Independence, freed Africans from slave ships, Black Seminoles from Florida, people from other Caribbean islands, as well as Chinese, Syrian and Greek immigrants. These people - with their different backgrounds, traditions and beliefs - shaped Bahamian culture into the unique, colorful patchwork of life and lifestyles that it is today.

Small Business Tips sponsored by Caribbean Beach bumming in the Bahamas Yes, Nassau and Grand Bahama can be over-touristed. But if beach is what you seek, these vacation prices are going to be hard to undercut By Rachel Nava Rohr Updated: 4:01 p.m. ET March 29, 2004 At dusk, rum and Coke in hand, I gravitate towards the noise of a circle of tourists that has gathered around a street performer to gawk and cheer. He is a professional limboer — going as low as they go — inches from the ground, edging his glistening, muscular body out from under the flaming limbo stick that is illuminating Count Basie Square in Freeport. Like much of the Bahamas, his skill has been developed exclusively for the tourism industry, and while that makes it superficial, no one is complaining, because this artifice, this performance, certainly enhances our vacations.  advertisement The Bahamas is popular primarily for it's convenience: just 60 miles off the coast of Florida, it's a short hop by plane from a number of US gateways. It's a place of many contrasts. The resort, golf, and casino scene is luxurious but virtually devoid of Bahamian culture, while the Bahamian's own neighborhoods are rarely visited because of the widespread poverty. Secluded beaches can be found even on the most popular islands, but go to any cities' main drag and the hubbub is overwhelming. True culture-seekers would do well to avoid the Bahamian tourist centers of Freeport and Nassau  (including Paradise Island just 600 feet away), but be warned that flights to the outer islands are far more expensive and infrequent.

97. Starfish Exuma Adventure Center, George Town, Exuma, Bahamas the US after the Revolutionary War, attempted to transplant their cotton cultureto the to more than 20,000 as teams from every island in the bahamas arrive to http://www.exuma-bahamas.com/starfish/history.html

A Little History It is on these two islands where Loyalist settlers, driven from the US after the Revolutionary War, attempted to transplant their cotton culture to the tropics, bringing in slaves, building plantations, and cultivating the sparce soil. When the soil gave out, the chenile bug devastated the crops, Emancipation freed the slaves, and Europe found better grades of cotton in Egypt, many of the Loyalist families called it quits and left their land grants to their former slaves. Today, it is estimated that about a third of the land on Great & Little Exuma is held in "Commonage" by the descendants of those slaves. Great Exuma is about 35 miles long and ranges from 2-8 miles wide. The Tropic of Cancer runs directly through it, giving the island a very tropical feeling. The South Side of the island features marine fisheries, great mangrove forests and bonefish flats, and is mostly unsettled and unspoiled. The North (ocean) side of the islands harbor most of the small hotels, beaches, and communities. A highway runs from one end of the island to the other. Elsewhere on Great Exuma you will want to visit remote and beautiful Cocoa Plum beach, see the historic boat building community of Barre Terre, eat conch salad at Big D's conch shack, visit historic Rolle Town and it's old Loyalist cemetery. You must visit Stocking Island with it's great beaches, Monument mountain, Blue Holes and caves, nature trail, and stomatolites (the oldest living organisms, found ONLY here and in Australia). Also in the harbor are the impressive ruins of Crab Cay, and great dive and snorkel sites.
