Mangrove Cay is located on the Middle Bight of Andros Island, on the central part of the island, a ten minutes drive from the Mangrove Cay Airport. The site for Mangrove Cay Club was selected first and foremost with close proximity to numerous flats in mind, and secondly, to give fishermen access to the west side. This legendary area is home to some of the largest bonefish that swim in the Atlantic, and is less than an hour’s boat ride from the Mangrove Cay dock on a calm day.  Situated away from the busiest lodges to the north, Mangrove Cay offers convenient access to the north & middle bights as well as a reliable off-shore program for dorado and wahoo. While Andros is first and foremost a bonefish fishery, guests will also frequently encounter barracuda, snook, jack crevalle, and the occasional tarpon or permit.

The Mangrove Cay Club has earned a reputation as an extremely elegant and efficient operation, run by amazing hosts Liz and Alton Bain, and in the heart of perhaps the best part of the island to consistently find eager bonefish. Mangrove Cay is somewhat of an anomaly in the Bahamas – five star accommodations, true efficiency, amazing food, modern boats and equipment, a professional staff of quality guides, and not a single disappointed guest.

Guests stay in double occupancy freestanding ocean view duplexes adjacent to the lodge’s main bar and restaurant. Rooms are air-conditioned, each with a sitting area, as well as private bath and porch. Andros Island’s most famous chef, Iyke Moore, prepares unique meals with a Bahamian twist. Construction was completed in 2000, so the entire facility still has a very new and fresh feeling. The grounds are perfectly manicured, and all the villas are situated next to a small beach and flats inhabited by the occasional cruising bonefish, barracuda, or shark.

Mangrove Cay Club is perfect for folks who are interested in a traditional Andros fishing lodge experience, but would prefer something a little more upscale. It is not the best fishery to consider if you prefer to wade fish, as most of the areas fished are done from the boat. It is a fantastic spot to consider for couples who are both fishing – and a very comfortable place for low maintenance non-anglers to relax.
