The Exuma Cays

Nothing can describe the Exuma Cays. You have to see them and experience them to believe the unbelievable beauty. Ask Johnny Depp. He fell in love with the with this stretch of islands running north from Great Exuma, while filming Pirates of the Caribbean here and bought his own island. And the illusionist, David Copperfield also owns an island in the Exumas. These islands, over 360 of them, stretch for a 100 miles, always within eyesight of each other, some no more than rocks others large enough for landing strips. There are more beaches in a thirty mile stretch of the Exuma Cays than there are anywhere else in the Bahamas, so if you are looking for a waterfront home Exuma Cays real estate is a good bet.
