Is Coco Bay for me?
If you like loud discos, gambling, or television - we're sorry, but NO. We do have more stars than you are every likely to see though! You'll find live coral reefs that lie right at your front door and are easy to swin to. They will thrill you with brightly colored fish and fantasic coral formations. If you want to explore nearby uninhabited islands or make visits to the settlement of New Plymouth, boat rentals are available on a weekly or daily basis.

How do I get there?
We have major airlines and commuter airlines offering daily service to the Treasure Cay Airport [ TCB ], the airport serving Coco Bay Cottages. From Florida, USAir flies from Orlando or West Palm Beach . Gulfstream (Continental Connection) offers daily service from Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. Air Sunshine flies from Ft-Lauderdale. BahamasAir offers 2 flights a day from Nassau. From the airport a short taxi ride will take you to the Green Turtle Ferry Dock. From there the Ferry will deliver you directly to our dock on Coco Bay.

What do I pack?
Most people pack too much, Green Turtle Cay is very informal (restaurants do request shirts for dinner). Besides your bathing suit, you'll only need shorts, t-shirts, one pair of cotton long pants, a windbreaker for boating or our occasional shower, a light sweater in the cooler months, beach shoes, and a hat and coverup for the sun. Do bring books if you're behind on your reading.

What do I do about Food and Supplies?
Three well stocked stores can be found in New Plymouth, the settlement on Green Turtle Cay (click the map for an enlargement). Local cuisine can be sampled at several native restaurants in town and, for the gourmet, appetites for more elaborate foods can be satisfied at two nearby clubs. New Plymouth is located on the southern tip of the island approximately 2 1/2 miles from Coco Bay Cottages.

How do I get around?
You can rent golf carts, boats, bicycles or mopeds (we will send info with your reservation confirmation) or there are two taxi cabs that can take you anywhere on the island. We suggest advance reservations during the peak season.
