The Abaco Island and Great Guana Cay Story of Grabbers

The story of Grabbers actually dates back to the 1700's when pirates of the Carribbean sought refuge and leisure in the unpopulated Abaco Island. Later that century British loyalists living in America sought refuge from the revolutionary war on the Great Guana Cay where their decendents continue the relaxed lifestyle of the Bahamas. It wasn't until nearly 200 years later that the Great Guana Cay's first "resort" (actually just a few rooms and a bar and a dock) was established with the name Guana Harbor Club.

 It was at the Guana Harbor Club that the first Abaco Island drink, the Guana Grabber was created (more about that-see Grabbers Food Drink & Fun) and the party was on. New owners of this Abaco Island bed bar and grill changed the name subsequently to the Guana Beach Resort which suffered terrible damage from Hurricane Floyd and a resulting fire in 2001.
