With a trio of National Reserves including a vast bird sanctuary that’s home to over 80,000 flamingos, the national bird, as well as, 140 species of native and migratory fowl—parrots to pelicans—Inagua is the Birdwatching Capital of The Bahamas.
Comprised of two islands, Great Inagua and Little Inagua, its capital and sole harbour, Matthew Town, is marked by the Great Inagua Lighthouse, erected in 1870.
One of three remaining hand-cranked, kerosene lighthouses in the nation, on a clear day, visitors to its 113-foot viewing platform enjoy panoramic vistas all the way to Cuba.
