Description:
Cat Cay lies at the southern end of the Biminis. It is 50 nautical miles from Miami, 60 from Fort Lauderdale and 90 miles from West Palm Beach.
Cat Cay is a private island, owned by the members of the Cat Cay Yacht Club. The island was once a stronghold of notorious pirates like Henry Morgan and Blackbeard. It has changed hands many times over the years but today this tiny gem (just 2.25 x half a mile) welcomes visiting yachtsmen to their full-service marina (stay limited to 24hrs)
Position:
25° 33’28″N, 79° 16’43″W (marina entrance)
Clearance
See main Bahamas Clearance page for information.
The Bahamian government maintains a Customs & Immigration office on Cat Cay, making the island an ideal port of entry. Officers are on duty from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM seven days a week. However, overtime charges apply on Saturday, Sunday and Bahamian holidays and weekdays prior to and after normal hours of operation.
The marina makes a charge for yachts tying up for clearance, even for as little as one hour, unless they stay overnight in the marina.

Docking
The marina is on the Eastern, or Bahama Bank, side of the island and is accessible from the Florida Straits via Gun Cay cut. It offers excellent shelter.
Marina reservations may be made through the Cat Cay office on the island. Non-member yachtsmen are limited to a stay of 24hrs and no access to the island’s beaches.
