One Week in the Exumas

Boat sailing in the Exuma blue waters

This is just one way to explore the Exumas aboard Magic Bus. We love customizing each trip around what you want to see—whether that's sandbars, solitude, or swimming pigs. No two adventures are the same, and we're always happy to talk it through. We could do this part all day—we love swapping stories and helping guests map out their perfect drift through paradise.

Snorkeler swimming in the sunlit cave at Thunderball Grotto

Friday: Arrival + Thunderball Grotto

After your scenic flight into Staniel Cay, you'll feel the change immediately. Golf carts, cold drinks, and locals who wave when they pass. We'll kick things off with a visit to the Staniel Cay Yacht Club and a first snorkel at Thunderball Grotto—sunlight, caves, and colors that don't seem real. Toast the week ahead onboard as the sun sets.

Swimming pigs wading in the shallows at Big Major Cay

Saturday: Swimming Pigs + Airplane Wreck + Pipe Creek

Meet the famous pigs of Big Major Cay, then dive a sunken airplane wreck where the sea has taken over. Afterward, we'll sail to Pipe Creek—a quiet anchorage with glassy water and miles of nothing but blues and sand.

Rock caves at Rocky Dundas rising out of clear Exuma water

Sunday: Rocky Dundas + Raychel's Bath

Snorkel cathedral-like caves at Rocky Dundas in the morning, then head to Raychel's Bath—a tucked-away tidal pool warmed by the sun and fizzed by the sea. It's the kind of spot you don't want to leave. But trust us, what's next is just as good.

Curving sandbar and mooring field at Warderick Wells in the Exuma Land and Sea Park

Monday: Warderick Wells + Exuma National Park

We head north into the Exuma Land & Sea Park—miles of protected reef, hiking trails, and wild beauty. You'll explore Warderick Wells, a perfect mix of trail and tide. Great snorkeling. Zero crowds.

Mangrove creek winding through Shroud Cay under a bright sky

Tuesday: Cambridge Cay or Shroud Cay

Choose your own adventure: snorkel The Aquarium at Cambridge Cay (it lives up to the name) or ride the lazy river through the mangroves of Shroud Cay. Prefer to beachcomb the hidden sandbars? We know just the ones.

Nurse sharks swimming beside the dock at Compass Cay

Wednesday: Compass Cay + Nurse Sharks

Head to Compass Cay for a swim with the friendliest nurse sharks you've ever met. Hike the island trails or find a perfect little beach to call your own for the afternoon.

Waterfront dock and colorful cottages at Staniel Cay Yacht Club

Thursday: Return to Staniel + Last Hurrah

We ease back to Staniel Cay for a final dip, a final lunch at the Yacht Club, and one last round of stories. Then it's back to the airport with sandy feet and salt in your soul.

Every itinerary is flexible based on weather, vibe, and your dream list. Your boat. Your rules.
