The Exuma Cays

A band of cays—with names like Rudder Cut, Big Farmer's, Great Guana, and Leaf—stretches northwest from Great Exuma. It will take you a full day to boat through all 365 cays, most uninhabited, some owned by celebrities (Faith Hill and Tim McGraw on Goat Cay, Johnny Depp on Halls Pond Cay, and David Copperfield on Musha Cay). Along the way you'll find giant starfish, wild iguanas, swimming pigs, dolphins, sharks, and picture-perfect footprintless sandbars. The Land and Sea Park, toward the northern end of the chain, is world-renowned.
