This paper describes results of four visits between 2010 and 2012. The Santaren Channel, used to transit to and from Cay Sal Bank, contained high numbers (6.1 ± 0.4 birds per km2) of seabirds. The Cay Say Bank has at least 117 detectable islands with 484 ha of land area; the most numerous colony was at Elbow Cay (23 ha). Audubon’s Shearwaters (Puffinus lherminieri) were breeding at 97 pairs per ha (total: 2,200; 95% CI = 1,650-2,800 pairs), Sooty Terns (Onychoprion fuscatus) at 382 pairs per ha (total: 8,800; 95% CI = 6,900-10,700 pairs), Bridled Terns (Onychoprion anaethetus) at 38 pairs per km coastline (5,829 m coastline; total: 220; 95% CI = 145-295 pairs) and Brown Noddies (Anous stolidus) at 72 pairs per ha (total: 1,609; 95% CI = 1,070-2,250 pairs).

  • Rum Cay Social Club, and I Have Chosen As My Subject One Dear to My Heart, Our H'earts
    I. ------",--' Rum Club Social Club 13th Anniversary Banquet Pil ot House Hotel, Nassau, N.P. Friday 11th November, 1988 : RUilfCay Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow ' Madam President, Honoured Patrons, Distinguished Guest~ --- I am delighted at having been invited to briefly address you this evening on the 13th Anniversary of the Rum Cay Social Club, and I have chosen as my subject one dear to my heart, our h'earts. the enchanting island of Rum Cay. R.um Cay's history, as we know it, began in 1492, when Christopher Columbus, searching for a western route to Asi'a, made a landfall on 12th October at the Lucayan/Arawak inhabited island of Guanahani, which he renamed San Salvador. Two days later, on 14th October, he discovered another island 12 miles long and 5 miles wide at its furthest points, giving an area of about 30 square miles, which the Lucayans/Arawaks called Millnana, or Manigua, and ;Ie renamed it Santa Maria de la Concepcion (Blessed Virgin Mary), and which in later,times was renamed Rum Cay. Information on RUlli Cay's early history is scant, since most books deal with the Bahamas as a whole and~ot with the separate islands, especially one as small as Rum Cay. There are some bits of information in different books though, which give clues to its past history. ~ Cay was inhabited at the time of Columbus' arrival by the amiable Lucayan/ Arawak Indians. Evidence of their existence on the island can be found in the Hartford Cave on the northern coast of Rum Cay. In coral walls.

  • The Berry Islands Fact Sheet
    THE BERRY ISLANDS FACT SHEET The Berry Islands are composed of a cluster of 30 mostly uninhabited cays, so it's not uncommon to stumble across a footprint-free beach or peaceful cove. With the abundance of privacy, these serene islands are a long known hideaway for the rich and famous. The Berry Islands are home to a number of spectacular dive sites, a 600-foot-wide blue hole and some of the most remarkable billfishing, making it the perfect destination for anglers and underwater adventurers. From pristine beaches and historical sites to renowned fishing and diving, visitors can expect to find tranquility and natural beauty around every corner. HISTORY The Berry Islands are believed to have been first settled in 1836 when Bahamas Governor William Colebrook established a settlement of emancipated slaves at Great Stirrup Cay. Comprised of 30 cays, The Berry Islands contained numerous natural resources that initiated plantations, hunting and settlements. The largest island, Great Harbour Cay, was developed in the 1960’s to be the ultimate getaway for the rich and famous.
