Top restaurants to visit in the Exuma Cays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Xuma\u2019s Restaurant and Bar<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While visiting Highbourne Cay, spend a night enjoying a touch of high end food and dine at Xuma\u2019s restaurant. The formal dining setting is perfect for a romantic evening ashore before taking a stroll along the cay\u2019s East Beach, leaving footprints in the sand.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We stopped into Highbourne Cay twice during our sail through The Exumas, and both times we ate at Xuma. And both meals were 5-star, from the food to the service. Highly recommend visiting if you’re cruising The Exumas!<\/em><\/p>\nRickb202, TripAdvisor reviewer<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Try the Xuma grilled lobster tails or blackened mahi-mahi and pair with one of the restaurant’s wide range of wines. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
