Exuma Bucket List

These are some of the main reasons that people visit Exuma

Soft Sand Beaches

Exuma has beaches that rank in the top 10 in The World. There are soft sand beaches that extend for miles, small intimate bays where yours are the only footprints. Sand bars that appear at low tide, ideal for a picnic.

Water Excursions

Rent a self drive boat and spend a blissful day exploring the snorkel spots, checking out a blue hole, see and pet the rays. Rent a skipper and boat and let a local share his knowledge with you and go further to offshore islands.

The Swimming Pigs

The favorite trip of the moment is through the Cays to see Iguanas, to swim in James Bond’s Thunderball Cave, to swim (or not) with Nurse sharks and most important, to swim with the wild pigs on Little Major Cay. An all day trip to cherish for years to come.

Kayaking or Jet Skis

Exuma is all about the ocean so you need to get out and explore to appreciate its beauty. One favorite way is to use the kayaks that Exuma Vacation Cottages provides to reach the amazing beaches and lagoons on Moriah Harbour Cay.

Mix with The Locals

Would you like to sit in the warm shallows off Stocking Island and have Sting Rays glide by, close enough to touch?
Would you like to swim in calm, warm ocean waters and watch turtles swim by and maybe take food from your fingers?
