Arthur's Town
Arthur’s Town on Cat Island is a secret sanctuary for luxury travel and attractions, where soft Atlantic breezes meet barefoot elegance. Begin your stay at a secluded beachfront villa or an upscale eco-lodge perched above powdery white sand, waking to pink-tinged dawns and crystalline turquoise water. Step outside to stroll the quiet main street, where pastel cottages lead toward one of the Bahamas’ most soulful coastlines.
Visit the historic childhood home of Sir Sidney Poitier, then wander to local churches glowing in late-afternoon light, listening as gentle hymns mingle with the sea. Charter a private yacht from Arthur’s Town dock to explore remote coves, stopping at Bennet’s Harbour to snorkel coral gardens swarming with angelfish and parrotfish. For an ultra-luxe day, arrange a crewed catamaran with champagne, fresh conch salad, and sunset canapés served on deck.
On land, hire a guide to hike the lush trails leading to Mount Alvernia and the Hermitage near New Bight, the highest point in the Bahamas, where panoramic views sweep over endless blue. Return to Arthur’s Town for a candlelit dinner of spiny lobster and grilled snapper at a boutique guesthouse, followed by stargazing on the quiet pier.
Whether you come for honeymoon seclusion or a refined island retreat, Arthur’s Town offers an intimate blend of luxury, culture, and unspoiled Bahamian beauty.
