Great Inagua Island

Great Inagua Essentials

Great Inagua, the southernmost island in the Bahamas, is a sanctuary for biodiversity and industrial history. The island hosts over 80,000 West Indian flamingos within the Inagua National Park and serves as a vital habitat for green turtles at Union Creek Reserve. Visitors can explore Matthew Town, home to the 19th-century lighthouse and the Erickson Museum, which chronicles the island’s salt-harvesting legacy. The Morton Saltworks remains one of the largest solar salt operations in the world, while the uninhabited Little Inagua National Park provides a remote refuge for rare reptiles.
