Overview

Miles of secluded swim ashore beaches, invigorating dive sites, and championship sportfishing are just a few of the highlights that make the Berry Islands a desired destination. Composed of a cluster of 30 cays, most of these islands are uninhabited. It is not uncommon to stumble across a footprint-free beach or private cove. You could spend an entire day without seeing a single soul. The Berry Islands are also home to several caverns, reef, wall and wreck dive sites, as well as a 600-foot-wide blue hole, bill fishing and ancient churches. The Berry Islands are made up of a land mass that totals just over 12 square miles. Many of the 30 cays that comprise the islands are great for snorkeling, hiking, diving and beachcombing. Great Stirrup Cay features an abandoned lighthouse built in 1863 during the reign of Prince William IV. Little Stirrup Cay (Coco Cay) is a private island exclusively used by Royal Caribbean International as a one-day stopover.

Then there’s Great Harbour Cay which boasts seven continuous miles of magnificent beaches and one of the best protected harbours in The Bahamas.
