Little Farmer's Cay, Exumas, Bahamas

Little Farmer's Cay offers a great all around protection anchorage. Farmer's Cay Marina has mooring balls and the small settlement has an airstrip and a small grocery store and two restaurants. The supply boat Captain C comes in the cut and a smaller boat comes alongside to unload while they turn around and then leave the same way they came in.

Our choice of beach on the banks side or a hike across the island to the Tongue of the Ocean side beach great for beach combing. Sunset at Bonds Cay Green flash at sunset at Bonds Cay Hiking the path  across the island through the brush to the  ocean side beach Surf's up!
