15 Secluded Caribbean Beaches You’ll Want to Keep to Yourself
By: Guy Britton - October 9th, 2025
Greenwood Beach, Cat Island, Bahamas
Stretching for nearly eight miles, Greenwood Beach is a pristine, windswept coastline on Cat Island. It’s the kind of place where footprints disappear in minutes, and the only sounds are waves and wind through the palms.
What We Like
It’s pure solitude. Greenwood is one of those rare beaches where you can walk for miles and never see another person. It’s great for shell hunting, swimming, or simply finding your own corner of paradise.
There are a few small inns nearby, but the beach itself remains wild and unspoiled — a true escape.
How to Get There
Fly into New Bight Airport (TBI) on Cat Island via Nassau. Greenwood Beach is about a 20-minute drive from the airport.
