Beach· Long Cay (Fortune Island)· Bahamas — Eleuthera, Andros & the Out Islands
Long Cay west-coast and North Side beaches
22° 36.8′ N · 74° 20.0′ W · approximate
Powder-white beaches on Long Cay's lee and northern shores, so seldom visited that expedition guides say they probably haven't seen footprints in years; the tourism board recommends North Side Beach for a quiet day.
Practical
Position approximate, placed by the Fortune Island West anchorage (land on the beach abeam). North Side Beach is not mapped, so walk or dinghy north from the anchorage. No shade, shops or water on the island; bring everything. Leave the salt-pond flamingos undisturbed.
