Things to do in Cat Island
Cat Island is a long, quiet island in the central Bahamas, known for its pink-sand Atlantic beaches, its traditional rake ’n’ scrape music and Mount Alvernia, the highest point in the country. Settlements such as New Bight, Old Bight and Arthur’s Town hold churches, small shops and colorful homes, and plantation ruins from the Loyalist era dot the landscape. Sidney Poitier grew up on Cat Island, and the island remains a place where traditions run deep. Small resorts and villas offer a low-key escape for visitors who prefer quiet beaches to big resorts.

Fernandez Bay
A sheltered crescent of white sand on the island’s western shore, with calm, clear water and memorable sunsets, a short drive from New Bight.
