Leaf Cay
Leaf Cay is a small private island in the Exuma chain in the Bahamas with three beaches of white sand and calm waters surrounding it. The island has existing buildings including houses and a boat dock, supporting infrastructure with underground power lines and connection to the Bahamas power grid, making future use or development possible.
The island developed over time as private property within the Exuma chain. Its current form with infrastructure and buildings reflects development and restoration efforts that prepared the place for future use.
The name 'Leaf Cay' reflects the island's shape and vegetation within the Exuma chain. Visitors notice how the place functions as a private retreat where guests and owners value the seclusion and connect with the natural surroundings.
The island lies about two miles from Staniel Cay, which has boat docks, a yacht club resort, and a small airport offering flights from Florida and Nassau. Visitors should plan to arrive by boat as a dock is on site, and nearby attractions like Thunderball Grotto or Compass Cay are also reachable by water.
The island has access to the Bahamas power grid through an underwater cable, making it unusual compared to other remote private islands. This connection means future users can rely on steady electricity without needing to set up their own generators.
