Green Turtle Cay is one of the barrier islands off mainland Great Abaco. It was named after the once abundant green turtles that inhabited the area. The settlement mainly engaged in pineapple and sugar cultivation, sponging, turtling and fishing.
Its main settlement is New Plymouth which was founded in the 18th century. The architecture of the older homes in the village is unique in the Bahamas, with steep-pitched roofs, originating with settlers from New England.
In 1977, Key West, Florida became a sister city to New Plymouth, Green Turtle Cay’s village.
