Bitter Guana Cay
An uninhabited island south of Staniel Cay, where endangered Exuma rock iguanas inhabit a small beach framed by white limestone cliffs.
Bitter Guana Cay lies about 5 kilometers southeast of Staniel Cay. White limestone cliffs surround a small beach, where endangered Exuma rock iguanas live. They emerge in numbers as soon as a boat lands. It is much closer to Staniel Cay than Allan's Cay and is a regular stop on island-hopping tours from Staniel Cay. Do not feed or touch the iguanas. Watch them from a distance.
