Musha Cay Bahamas Nuts & Bolts:
Musha Cay and its associated islets and waterscapes put a fabulous spectrum of activities and experiences at your fingertips. From jet boats and catamarans to sailboats and paddleboards, you’ve got quite the fleet to enjoy these magical Bahamian waters. Fishing, jet-skiing, windsurfing, snorkeling: Aquatic explorations and adventures abound.
A signature Musha Cay delight is visiting the ethereal, alabaster three-mile-long sandbar that appears and disappears daily with tidal patterns. It’s a mesmerizing place to enjoy a picnic lunch, pop the question, or stroll hand-in-hand, surrounded by aquamarine splendor. Just a few minutes' boat ride from the Musha shorefront, the sandbar, and its everyday vanishing-and-reappearing act nicely reflects David Copperfield’s life passion.
Hiking trails and jogging paths lace Musha Cay. You can also arrange for high-octane workouts on the beach or (for an additional fee) pursue yoga instruction. An air-conditioned gym set along the beachfront provides top-notch strength training and cardiovascular equipment.
Kick back and watch your favorite shows on satellite TV, play board games, or indulge in karaoke in The Landings lounge. It’s the hub of the island community, a spectacular building on top of a staircase overlooking Musha’s main dock and home to a restaurant and the guest clubhouse. Play billiards on a table owned by the one and only Harry Houdini, with a collection of Houdini belongings and mementos surrounding you. This is a magician’s private island resort, after all!

In a place where you enjoy not only private beaches but also multiple private islets, it’s easy to fall entirely under the sway of a rhythm that’s refreshingly different from “real-world” life.
Start your day with coffee in your luxury villa or at The Landings. Paddle along the pristine shorefront, or go for a sail. Have lunch on the sugar-sand beach, or maybe that ethereal sandbar.
Feast in an open-air pavilion or right on the beachfront, then assemble for a movie under the West Indies stars. It’s all possible—and much more—amid the dreamscape of Musha Cay.
Musha Cay and the Islands of Copperfield Bay lie in the Bahamian district of Exuma, part of a string of cays running northwestward of Great Exuma and the district capital of Georgetown. The Bahamas form part of the Lucayan Archipelago—the northern frontier of the West Indies—with the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Enwrapping you in exclusive island loveliness away from mundane routines, Musha Cay feels as far removed from the “real world” as you can get while still pampered with every imaginable luxury.
