Farmer's Cay Cut

23° 57.5′ N · 76° 18.5′ W · approximate

The deep pass between Little Farmer's and Big Farmer's Cays, the southern gateway between Exuma Sound and the banks — and the reason many boats route to Farmers rather than fight the shallows further south.

Practical

One of the more forgiving Exuma cuts, but it still rages on an ebb against easterly swell — transit on the flood or at slack. Big Farmer's Cay north bay sits beside it and makes a good frontal refuge. Position derived from island geometry; use Explorer charts.
