stuart cove, underwater hollywood, location, production, nassau filmingUnderwater Hollywood Production companies have known about the virtues of the crystal clear waters of The Bahamas since making the original "20,000 Leagues Under The Sea" in 1915. Since that time, it has remained one of the top locations worldwide for underwater footage. That's why it has earned the nick name "Underwater Movie Capital of the World".

The commonwealth of the Bahamas encompasses over 700 different islands and 100,000 square miles of territory. Islands range from tropical and lush, to desert. Some islands are densely populated, while others have no population at all. Whatever you are looking for - The Bahamas has the diversity to allow you to find the perfect location.

The historical sites contrast sharply to the modern development on the island as well. There are over 20 hotels on the island, with 2 major casino resorts, and a tourism infrastructure in place that rivals any destination in the world.

The coast of Nassau is just as diversified as the town. Along the northeast side of the island you will find long lonely sand beaches with waves coming in.

On the weekends you can usually catch local teens jumping off the cliffs into the water. Below, there are caves caused by hundreds of years worth of waves crashing into the wall, along with the unique aspect of hand carved stone steps cut into the cliffs dating back to the days of Blackbeard the Pirate.

South of our base of operations you will find more shallow waters and beaches as this is the leeward (calm) side of the island.
