The reason to consider it.
Powell Cay is located approximately three miles north east of Coopers Town on the mainland, which is the northernmost settlement on the island of Great Abaco. It is located between Spanish Cay and Manjack cay in the Sea of Abaco.
Powell Cay consists of a total footprint of approximately two hundred and ninety four acres with a portion of the island being owned by the crown and in the process of being made into a nature preserve, which would make the island the ideal place for a 5 star resort location or amazing private retreat.
This portion of the Cay lies in an approximate northwest to southeast orientation with the northern side having an Atlantic Ocean exposure and the lee side facing the Sea of Abaco with relative protection. The northern beach is typical of Atlantic exposure with its shallow profile sandy beach.
This private cay is perfect for a resort project!
Powell Cay is simply one of the most beautiful Cays in the Abacos.

What people say about Bahamas
Sources agree that foreigners can own Bahamian property outright and that an ordinary home purchase needs a registration filing through a Bahamian lawyer, not a discretionary permit.
- Positive Foreign buyers mostly register rather than seek a permit; permit applies to large or commercial land
- Mixed Closing costs are dominated by a 10% transfer VAT for foreign buyers, usually split with the seller, plus legal fees
- Mixed Annual property tax is being reshaped in 2026 (new foreign owner-occupied category), and Bahamian realtors dispute fairness
- Concern Vacant land owned by foreigners carries a notably heavier tax until built on
The asking price is not what it costs.
