Gateway to Long Island's quiet shores and turquoise Bahamian waters

Deadman's Cay Airport serves the southern portion of Long Island in the Bahamas, providing essential air access to one of the country's most scenic and unhurried islands. The airport is a small general aviation and domestic facility connecting Long Island residents and visitors to Nassau and other Bahamian destinations. Its remote, relaxed character reflects the island lifestyle that draws travellers seeking authentic Bahamian culture away from the busier tourist hubs.

Terminals
  • Main Terminal — A single modest domestic terminal handling arrivals and departures for inter-island Bahamian flights.
Ground Transport
  • Rental cars available through local agencies by prior arrangement
  • Taxis and private transfers bookable through local guesthouses and resorts
  • Hotel or resort courtesy shuttle (arranged in advance)
Nearby Hotels

Dining

Deadman's Cay village and surrounding settlements offer local Bahamian eateries serving fresh seafood, conch dishes, and home-cooked meals. Visitors are advised to arrange meals through their accommodation or explore nearby roadside restaurants.

Traveller Tips
  • Pre-arrange car rental or taxi pickup as ground transport is very limited on arrival.
  • Confirm flight schedules directly with your carrier as inter-island services can be subject to change.
  • Carry local Bahamian dollars or US dollars in cash as card facilities in the area may be limited.
  • Long Island spans over 80 miles, so plan your transport carefully depending on which part of the island you are visiting.
