Tailwinds Resort

A beautiful, fertile, virgin island, Cat Island is a lush, tranquil sanctuary for those seeking an escape from modern civilization. About 130 miles southeast of Nassau and Paradise Island near the Tropic of Cancer lay a fishhook-shaped island with plenty to see and do.

Feel at home in one of four spacious open layout villas.  Each sleeps two persons and is steps away from your private beach. Sleep in late, brunch al fresco, then go exploring! Step back into history and visit cotton plantation ruins & the remains of slave huts dating back to the 1700s, explore Arawak Indian caves, uninhabited cays and hidden coves, attend a regatta or the annual rake ‘n scrape music festival, go on a shark dive,  or hike a nature trail.

Cat Island provides a year-round tropical beach vacation adventure.  Divers like the coral reefs and blue holes, walls, caves and shipwrecks. Shark dives, dolphins and stingrays are all part of the experience. While veteran divers know their way around the ocean floor, guides always are around to help beginners experience life under the sea.

With just around 1,700 locals and not a large number of long-stay visitors or holiday makers it's as close to the deserted island paradise as one is likely to find!
