Hawk's Nest Resort & Marina

Featured Listing Hawk’s Nest Resort & Marina, Cat Island, The Bahamas

A Unique Opportunity This family-owned resort is an idyllic setting for incredible development potential, offering scalable and endless opportunities.

With more than 2.3 miles of oceanfront and 370 deeded acres of land, this magnificent property has the perception of being on its own private island. Surrounded by mangrove estuaries and private soft sand beaches, this property can be developed with a range of considerations and amenities, allowing for a phased development over time.

Situated in the southwestern tip of beautiful Cat Island, in The Bahamas, this unique property has an established 28-slip marina and its own private 70-foot wide, 3,100-foot airstrip. The airstrip is already paved to be extended to a length of 4,900-feet.

Cat Island, only 48-miles long, considered part of the Out Islands or as the locals call it, the Family Islands, is in the central Bahamas chain in the eastern boundary and is located 130 miles southeast of Nassau and 300 miles from Fort Lauderdale. With approximately 1,700 residents, this Out Island is an ideal destination for those seeking to fish, dive, snorkel, explore or simply disconnect.

Cat Island has the highest point in all the Bahamas. Mount Alvernia (formerly Como Hill) is over 200 feet above sea level. With a 10-minute hike up to the top, one will experience the most breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views of the entire island and as far as the eye can see on a clear day.
