Cat Island The Bridge Inn

The Bridge Inn provides a secluded, warm and friendly atmosphere, and is a perfect setting for a nature-lover's vacation.

This family-owned and operated property is named after a small bridge that spans the nearby bonefish flats, and has been a local fixture for many years. The warm hospitality begins when each guest is welcomed with free transportation to and from the New Bight Airport.

Visitors can get the best in local and international cuisine and beverages at the restaurant and bar on site. It is also the perfect site for an island wedding.

Arrangements can be made for bone-fishing with a local guide; deep-drop fishing for red snapper, black snapper and Nassau grouper; trawling, or sports fishing, for blue marlin, Wahoo and mahi mahi.

Scuba diving with one of the local dive operators is also available along with tours to nearby attractions such as The Hermitage, the bat caves and the Colonel Andrew Deveaux Plantation. Escorts are available to accompany guests for nighttime crabbing, where you can catch land crabs, a staple of the local diet.

Rental cars are available on the premises and bicycles are free to guests.

For those seeking more quiet pursuits, there is a secluded mile-long beach, just a short walk away, with a shallow lagoon perfect for sunbathing, swimming or snoozing, with great reefs for snorkeling right off the beach. (Snorkeling gear is not provided.)

The pathway to the beach is overhung by a canopy of Casuarinas, providing a perfect “nature trail” for your daily walks.
