chub cay a new era begins Whether you arrive by boat or by plane, the approach to Chub Cay provides a remarkable view. From the sky, you can see the first new villas in tropical colors dotting the beautiful white beaches and lush green landscaping. The approach by sea leads to an expansive new marina surrounded by turquoise waters and watched over by the breathtaking 18-ft. tall leaping marlin statue “Chub Cay Blue�. Although only a small portion of the 1000 acres of land on Chub Cay will be developed and renovated, the improvements to this private island paradise are already astounding.

Chub Cay, the private island with
a sense of history The history of Chub Cay is without equal in the island paradise of The Bahamas. Legendary throughout the world for sport fishing and diving, Chub Cay also has miles of sandy beaches and a protected harbor. As a private island, Chub Cay has been the exclusive retreat for a very select membership. Building on this unique heritage, Chub Cay treasures and protects this legacy of natural beauty, tradition, and world-class recreation.
