Half Moon Cay is a private island owned by Carnival Corporation that is located in the Bahamas almost 100 miles southeast of Nassau

beach chairs are free to use and are plentiful

we recommend booking them early as a shore excursion if you're interested

the fish are plentiful in this area because Carnival Corporation has submerged artificial reefs to attract fish
