The Exumas, Bahamas
 
The Exumas are an archipelago of 365 cays and islands, beginning just 35 miles (56 km) southeast of Nassau, an exotic collection of tiny jewels set in beautiful aquamarine and sapphire water. Great Exuma Island, together with the Exuma Cays offer an amazing variety of vacation possibilities, from resorts and hotels with luxury amenities to basic fishing lodges. Hidden coves, bays, and harbours throughout are magnets for yachts and sport fishermen. [Source]

In light of the relatively low cost of purchasing islands and the relatively low Bahamian tax regime for non-locals, a number of celebrities own islands in the Exumas. These include:

Nicolas Cage
David Copperfield
Ali Daei
Johnny Depp
Faith Hill and Tim McGraw
Ali Karimi
Eddie Murphy
Eddie Irvine
