Lapping tides, languid skies, nature's chatter, unhurried horizons…
The northern end of the Exuma Chain beckons. At 24°7257”N, 76°8188”W, the ancient cay of Highbourne awaits, loaded with promise – of soul-restoring vistas, water-based adventures and nature-fueled narratives. Here, amid this biodiverse landscape with its backdrop of pure, ever-shifting Atlantic light, pause, set your own pace and explore plentiful opportunities to establish some new and deeply personal memories.
A favoured outpost among seasoned yachtsmen, Highbourne’s impeccable marina is located within a naturally sheltered harbour.
An ideal dock for those journeying through or around the Exumas, it features 750ft of face dock for yachts up to 180ft (8’ draft) and 16 back-in slips for boats of up to 75ft. Reservations ahead of arrival are strongly recommended.
Standard marina amenities include fuel (large capacity diesel tanks), power, reverse-osmosis water, ice, wireless internet, and a well-stocked store.
It started with the Dockmaster telling us that we could not have the slip on the lea ward side of the dock because there was a 150' yacht coming in when there wasn't. then when we ordered take out dinner for 5 the food was the worst I have ever had in the Bahamas. we thru most of it out. then it ended with them trying to charge me an additional for $240 electric. They charged $200/night for 2 x 50 amp 220v service when we were paying 1/2 that for metered service. I will not be back!!!!
Absolutely beautiful place! Beach right by the marina and another one on the Atlantic side, and another one in a cove towards the north side with a bar. Great restaurant overlooking the sunset, great dockhands and a beautiful island
