Great Guana Cay is known for its long, beautiful beach. Miles of white, sandy beach is waiting for you - just to be explored. The beach is perfect for walking, running, swimming, snorkeling, surfing or collecting shell, sea glass or sea beans. Maybe you’ll even find an antique glass ball that has floated ashore. When you go strolling down the beach, you'd be surpriced if you meet anyone else.

Great Guana Cay is approximately seven miles long. There is excellent fishing on the reefs and offshore. Bonefish abound in the shallow bays on the Sea of Abaco side of the cay.

Great Guana Cay is one of the most beautiful cays in the Bahamas. If you're looking for peace and quiet - it's there. If you're looking to socialize or party - you've got it on Guana Cay. When you feel totally at peace and are ready to socialize, you can visit one of the three beach bars, all with beautiful views.

There's a new addition to the bar/restaurant scene on Guana Cay: "Mermaids on the rocks". This is a boutique hotell, a restaurant, a pool bar with access from the Sea of Abaco. This bar is halfways down the cay due North from the Settlement.

Nipper's Beach Bar - Open again!

The most famous bar is Nipper’s Beach Bar on the ocean side. Nipper's has two swimming pools and is open every day of the week until 5 o'clock, except Tuesdays. People from all over the world come to Nippers. Not only to have a savory lunch, but also to experience the feared and famous frozen "Nipper Juice". You too would probably want to try the Nipper juice, a tropical drink that is a lot stronger than you think. This drink makes it is easy to forget your beach bag, cell phone, children, husband, etc.

From the bar you have an amazing view to the stunning beach and the Atlantic Ocean. You just walk down the stairs, and you're on the beach.

Grabber's at Sunset Beach

If you walk to the left when you get off the ferry dock, you'll find Grabber’s Bed Bar & Grill at the end of the Front Street. Grabber's is located by the Sea of Abaco, on Sunset Beach, and as you can imagine, the sunset is breathtaking from there.

Grabber's Resort at Sunset Beach is facing the Sea of Abaco, with a beach perfect for small kids.

At Grabber's you can hang out in a hammock while you're watching the sailboats anchoring up at Fisher's Bay. You can get on a paddle board and paddle around the small rock (Dehlias Cay) you see out in the bay, or get in a kayak with a friend and paddle along the shore line. At Grabber's you can have lunch, dinner, or just a drink. Grabber's serve their own concoction of a dangerous tropical drink. This one is rightly called "Guana Grabber", so watch yourself after a few of those.

Wi-fi and General Info

All the bars have WiFI Internet and free US phones.

The general population on Guana before the hurricane consisted of about 150 people. In addition, there were at least as many second home-owners. Since the hurricane, numerous ex-pats and Bahamians from all over the Bahamas have been working at Baker`s Bay and around the island, trying to restore the island to its former glory. And then we have tourists, of course. The people are friendly and most of them would greet you with a "hi" and a wave on passing. If you have questions, everyone will be more than happy to help you.

Guana Cay has one small school with only 5-6 pupils. The rest of the kids take the ferry over to Marsh Harbour to private schools.
