Rum Cay

Rum Cay, originally named Santa Maria de la Concepción by Columbus, spans 30 square miles and earned its current name from a shipwrecked cargo of rum. With stunning beaches, turquoise waters, vibrant coral reefs, and rolling hills over 120 feet, it’s a haven for boaters and nature enthusiasts. Known as the “underwater museum” of The Bahamas, Rum Cay features numerous shipwrecks, Lucayan Indian petroglyphs, and early 1900s ruins.

The island presents prime beachfront real estate opportunities, ideal for high-end mixed-use developments or luxury residential estates. With deep surrounding waters, it’s perfectly suited for surfing, mega yachts and even cruise ships seeking a secluded docking experience. The newly constructed 5,000-foot runway accommodates private flights from Nassau, Long Island, and nearby islands, while upcoming infrastructure projects position Rum Cay as an emerging affordable vacation destination.
