When you land
Things to do in Staniel Cay
Staniel Cay is a small island in the heart of the Exuma Cays, with a few hundred residents, a handful of shops and the Staniel Cay Yacht Club, which has welcomed boaters since the 1950s. It is the hub for some of the most photographed sights in the Bahamas: the swimming pigs of Big Major Cay, the coral-lit chamber of Thunderball Grotto and the protected waters of the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park. Yachts anchor off the cay throughout the season, and visitors explore by small boat, hopping between sandbars, beaches and reefs.
