Anguilla vets, seeking recommendations for Bahamas...

[Johann1]

Spent quite a few holidays on Anguilla, and loved it. However, the flights are a total pain now given the cut-backs from the airlines...so seeking alternatives....and friends had good things to say about Bahamas and the quieter (Out Islands?) islands. Hope you can help us.

Looking for high quality sand and water, quiet and decent to very good restaurants.

Looking to avoid: Loud, busy, touristed places, cruise ships, para sailing, banana boats, jet ski, etc.

Any recommendations would be very much appreciated.
