UNFORTUNATELY RAGGED ISLAND WAS DEVASTATED BY HURRICANE IRMA IN 2017 AND THIS TINY ISLAND OF 72 INHABITANTS HAS YET TO BE REBUILT. RUMOR HAS IT THAT THEY WILL REBUILD AND LOCALS AND VISITORS ALIKE WILL BE ABLE TO VISIT THIS HIDDEN GEM.

Quiet, serene, and hilly, Ragged Island isn’t as rough as its name suggests. The island is a haven for avid fishermen, with its unparalleled flats ideal for bonefishing. It’s not uncommon to snag an abundance of grouper, snapper, barracuda, tuna and king fish during just one day on the water. The beaches of Ragged Island are mostly unexplored, and the coves are perfect for picnicking, relaxing and combing for shells. Those looking to explore by land will find several historical landmarks, quaint towns and authentic handmade Bahamian crafts. It’s an adventure unlike any other.
