“Although small, the island has most of what anyone could need: a church, post office,

library, three small retail shops and a marine supply store. In addition, the presence of the

airstrip allows for quick and easy access to Nassau and Florida.”

Dinner Host Suggestion:The Club House Restaurant

Enjoy a simply delicious mix of Bahamian Continental Cuisine “As with all of SCYC, the dress is always casual, but feel free to get fancy if that’s

what you want. Just be comfortable – you’re on vacation!”

Staniel Cay Yacht Club

Pit Stop for Re-Fuel at Nassau

The likes of Johnny Depp, Nicholas Cage and David Copperfieldhave all staked claims to their own little pieces of paradise in the ExumaCays, but the easy life in this island chain in The Bahamas isn't just forfilm stars. Some less well-known fellows can be spotted frolicking on thebeaches and basking in the shallows, as happy as pigs in ... seawater!

Open Day At sea or on land, at Sandals Emerald Bay we'll match your inclination for adventure as often as you wish, scuba diving in waters renowned among the world's most spectacular. Play in the ocean or relax by the pool. Sip a daiquiri by the swim-up bar or raise a pint at The Drunken Duck pub. Enjoy yoga, Pilates and a state-of-the-art fitness center, or take in a game of tennis. Or choose to do nothing at all. “After all, this is your vacation.”

Dinner Host Suggestion:Barefoot by the Sea

You won't be footloose and fancy free but, as the restaurant name implies,

you can be barefoot by the sea with your feet resting on the soft white sand.

Within a stone's throw of the ocean, under a Caribbean thatched roof, you can sample

the local specialty, conch salad and fritters

However if the Barefoot Restaurant is not your style don’t worry:Whether you crave an evening of sophisticated gastronomy, the barefoot

elegance of oceanside dining, a refined afternoon tea, or a lively night at an authentic English pub, seven unique venues offer a cuisine and ambience to suit every mood.

Open Day Host Suggestion: Explore the Island

Rachel’s Bubble Bath, a lagoon on the north end, and the island’s loveliest spot. It borders Conch Cut, an “inlet” from Exumas Sound, and the southern boundary of the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park. The lagoon is fed by water from the Sound breaking over a notch in the lava rocks, which often causes froth to form on the surface, hence, “Bubble Bath.

Explore the vast trail system of the island from North to South and East to West. Venture to the south to the Bat Cave and Low Tide Airport; walk the shoreline of the half mile crescent beach; take the” jungle walk” to the west and enjoy even more private beaches or if you are feeling energetic, climb Compass Peek, the highest point of the island at 92 feet affording spectacular views of the Exumas Land and Sea Park.
