Come to Great Guana Cay and experience life in a small Bahamian fishing settlement.
Guana Cay stretches seven miles tip to tip, with a five mile long beach which many consider the best in the Bahamas. The reef fishing is excellent, and the bonefish are plentiful in the shallow bays. Guana Cay settlement stretches along the bay at the head of the palm-fringed Kidd's Cove, named after the pirate. The island has about 100 residents, mostly descended from Loyalists who left Virginia and the Carolinas to settle in this remote place.

Caribbean Travel Tip
Jungle & Rainforest Treking
If you plan to walk into the jungle make sure you know what you are doing. Carry a GPS and know how to use it. A compass will help the experienced explorer but if you just bought it and expect to enter the jungle and knock about then you may find yourself in deep trouble.
If you have to venture into the bush then please follow these instructions:
- Tell somebody where you are going.
- Bring lots of water.
- Make sure your compass works.
- Mark your trail.
- Be visually aware and remember landmarks.
- Check to see where the sun is when you enter the bush then check your watch to see what time it is, make regular checks to orient yourself to the movement of the sun.
