ABOUT ALLENX
Carl A. Allen founded Allen Exploration (AllenX) in 2016 to bring the level of leadership and professionalism that served him well in the business world to the world of historic shipwreck and cultural artifact research and recovery. AllenX has partnered with The Bahamian government to search for, recover, and document historic period shipwrecks and the maritime history of The Bahamas.
​
As Allen Exploration continues to grow, so does it's vision for engaging the possibilities on a variety of opportunities.
WALKER'S CAY
Walker’s Cay lies 53 miles to the northeast of West End, Grand Bahama, in the northern Bahamas. For over fifty years, Walker’s Cay has been a legendary fishing resort known by fishermen worldwide as the premier deep-sea fishing location. Sadly, the island was wiped out by hurricanes in 2004. The Allens purchased the island in 2018. Thanks to Carl & Gigi Allen, the rebirth of “The Gateway to the Bahamas” is underway.
