No Name Cay

Location: Abacos
Lat / Lon: N 26° 44.766' / W 077° 18.101'
Depth: 7'-10'
Tide: 2.0'-2.5'
Description:
No Name Cay was uninhabited save for the hutias and sea birds when seemingly overnight the island was transformed into the Abaconian version of a swimming with the pigs attraction.
Dubbed "Piggyville," the island is home to a small herd of pigs as well as Big O’s, a sizable bar and restaurant. The bar was heavily damaged during Dorian and one of the pigs miraculously waded ashore on an island almost 20 nm to the south, but everything has been rebuilt bigger and stronger than ever. Most of the activity is held during the day and once the sun goes down, the anchorage reverts to a quiet place to spend the night in settled conditions.

A popular day spot to visit and feed the pigs that live on the beautiful beach at No Name Cay. Good holding in sand; 6-8 feet at mean low water. Some wind protection from the northeast, but nothing else. Expect some swell here. Nearby Gilliam Point on the south tip of Green Turtle also has a beautiful beach and is known for it's shelling.
