Approximately three miles long, and about one and one-half miles wide at its widest point, Green Turtle Cay is one of the oldest settled islands in the Northern Bahamas. Green Turtle Cay is one of the barrier islands that separate the northeast shore of Great Abaco Island from the Atlantic, and the closest landing on Great Abaco is Treasure Cay. Green Turtle Cay is also further protected from the Atlantic Ocean by its own set of offshore reefs, which help protect the ocean beaches on this jewel of an island. Green Turtle Cay is about 24 nautical miles north of Elbow Cay, home of Hope Town, and about 20 nautical miles from Marsh Harbour. Great Guana Cay, with its fabulous ocean beach, is about halfway between Hope Town and Green Turtle. Continental and USAir both service the airports at Treasure Cay and Marsh Harbour. There is dependable ferry service from the dock at Treasure Cay.

A little bit about New Plymouth:
Go Here for a Picture Tour of New Plymouth.

New Plymouth, home of the Albert Lowe Museum, boasts a variety of stores, shops, and restaurants. Our houses are pastel coloured clapboard, fresh and sparkling under the Bahamian sun, and we know how to make our visitors feel right at home. There is a post office, telecommunications center, and a Barclays Bank branch as well. There is a wide selection of beaches on the sound and ocean sides, bonefishing, ocean fishing, diving, and, of course, the Gully Roosters. A walking tour of New Plymouth takes you back to a simpler time, and our life still centers on the sea and its bounty. The pride we feel in our community shows in our homes, our churches, and our streets.

Welcome to our island home, and enjoy your stay.
