Great Isaac Cay, Bahamas

. It is accessible only by boat.

The most prominent feature of the island is its lighthouse, which was built in 1859, and stands about 151 feet (46 meters) tall. It has been inactive since about 2000. On August 4, 1969, the station was discovered to have been abandoned by its two keepers, who were never found.

The grounds are open to the public, although the lighthouse itself has had stairs removed to block access to the interior of that structure. The keepers’ house, cistern, and assorted buildings are crumbling into ruins. The derelict collection of abandoned buildings make Great Isaac Cay a popular destination for boaters.
