If the Exumas are a necklace of sparkling jewels, Staniel Cay is the diamond pendant. This enchanting island sits at the heart of the Exuma chain — 365 islands and cays stretching over 100 miles southeast of Nassau.
To the east lies Exuma Sound, with its deep-water reefs and exceptional offshore fishing. To the west, the shallow banks offer sea gardens, calm anchorages, and winding channels between the islands — a paradise for boaters and snorkelers alike.
Beaches are everywhere, each more stunning than the last. If you stumble upon one already occupied, simply move to the next — you’ll likely have it all to yourself. The main ocean beach on Staniel Cay runs nearly the full length of the island, with vibrant coral reefs just offshore, perfect for snorkeling adventures.
Staniel Cay truly is the jewel at the center of the Exumas — a place where beauty, tranquility, and adventure come together in perfect harmony.
