Norman’s Cay
Norman’s Cay, nestled in the Exuma region of the Bahamas, epitomizes the ideal of an island paradise with its pristine white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters. This idyllic setting, which captured the imagination of many through the promotional footage of the ill-fated Fyre Festival in 2017, has a history that contrasts sharply with its serene appearance. In the late 1970s, this tranquil island became the backdrop for a dramatic and darker chapter in its history.
The transformation of this picturesque retreat into a hub of illicit activities marked a significant departure from the peaceful existence it had once known. The island’s beauty belied the nefarious activities that would soon envelop it, turning Norman’s Cay into a name synonymous with a notorious period in the Caribbean’s history.
