Experience island life off the grid
Shore Leave Cottage. Green Turtle Cay. Abaco. Bahamas
Traveling with a group? Shore Leave Cottage is the perfect add-on for friends and family who want to meet up with you while you are cruising or for Green Turtle guests who want more privacy than bunking in a ‘bigger family/friends house’ provides.
4 day rental available - $200 per day. Keep your tender tied up at SLC and anchor off the cottage in the Sea of Abaco to catch the breeze or pick up a mooring in White Sound in rougher weather.
Restore
When is the last time you enjoyed the ease of being entirely surrounded by the natural world? Just relax on the chaise lounge, listen to the birds, feel the soft breezes, read a great book, and enjoy every minute of a spectacular sunset from your private, screened gazebo just steps from the sea. BBQ some fish or a nice steak and just slow down. This is a place where you can make time stand still.
Enjoy
Without leaving the property, take a dip in the sea, snorkel in shallow, protected water and see tiny reef fish. Or go full on tourist and go up to Manjack Cay to pet the rays and feed the turtles and sharks. Make memories on a guided trip, whether bone fishing, SCUBA, or visiting the swimming pigs. Go to town to shop and dine or enjoy a great meal at one of the close by White Sound resorts.
Discover
Do you love exploring on your own? Green Turtle Cay is the perfect place for you. Snorkel down to the Bluff House for lunch on the beach, visit Ocean Beach for a long walk or swim, or go out to the reef, drop anchor, and discover your own favorite spot. Explore nearby islands looking for turtles, sea horses, and hidden beaches. You make your plans, chart your course, and delight in the discovery.
Relax
Isn’t cruising great? We love dropping anchor at a different place each night. It’s a wonderful way to see the Abacos. But, it’s great to get off the boat, to stretch out in a big, comfortable bed, to relax, to have some “me time,” and escape the responsibility. Explore the island’s gunkholes in your dinghy, do the wash, chill. We recommend putting your big boat on a mooring in White Sound or anchoring off the cottage in the Sea of Abaco to take a little Shore Leave.
