Soldier Cay Beach (beside Market Fish Cay)
25° 40.0′ N · 77° 45.4′ W · approximate
A small, easy-landing dinghy beach on the west side of Soldier Cay, the next cay south of Market Fish Cay; the island is so narrow that a hundred-yard walk takes you across to the rocky ocean shore.
Practical
Position approximate: on the west shore of Soldier Cay just east of the ActiveCaptain Soldier Cay anchorage marker (25.6663, -77.7580) and inside the OpenStreetMap outline of the cay. ActiveCaptain describes a nice beach that is easy to land a dinghy on and a quick 100-yard walk over to the rocky ocean side. Noforeignland reviewers mention the small beach, sharks and other sea life, and some roll in the anchorage depending on conditions. Uninhabited: pack out all trash, and keep an eye on sharks when wading or swimming at dusk.
Best for
