Brief Description
When in the Bahamas, stop everything and head to Cat Island to get an authentic feel of the stunning Out Islands! The fishhook-shaped island is undoubtedly one of the most unique Out Island in the Caribbean, with a mysterious history, rugged coastline, and spectacular views. From abandoned century-old slave huts and cotton plantations to the highest mountain in the Bahamas, this quaint island is going to take you by surprise with the sheer volume of things to do!
The 48-mile-long island was either named after the pirate Arthur Catt in the 18th century or was simply named after its large population of feral cats. Beyond its debatable origins, the island today is still undeveloped in many parts. This offers you an exciting chance to soak in the untouched wilderness of Cat Island while still having the option to retreat in your luxurious resort. You could hike up to the small cathedral on top of Mt. Alvernia, the highest point in the Bahamas, or you could relax under a thatched-roof bar with a refreshing cocktail to keep you company. Divers can explore the reefs, corals, and shipwrecks, while fishers can try their hand at finding big game.
Cat Island’s pink sand beaches are another iconic place that you cannot miss during your excursion to this charming island. The soft peachy colors compliment the bright azure and seem to resemble something straight out of a dream! Without a doubt, Cat Island is among the most beautiful places in the entire Caribbean, if not in the entire world.
