Black Sound Cay National Reserve is a miniature park located in the northern most bank of the Black Sound in the south eastern part of Green Turtle Cay of Abaco. Along with promoting considerable growth of mangroves, the park is also habitat to myriad aquatic birds.

Magnolia warblers, Painted bunting, Black and White warblers, Indigo buntings, and American redstarts are some of the birds that can be found in the park. The park is also known to protect endangered ducks like the West Indian Whistling Duck and the White Cheeked Pintail. The mangrove community here also promotes the existence of sundry fishes like conch, groupers, and crawfish.

Created out of the humble concerns of the residents of the place, Black Sound Cay National Reserve was deemed as national park in year 1988. The Bahamas National Trust and the Bahamas Government signed a 99 year lease to complete the formalities on 1 Nov 1988. Buttonwood, the Red Mangrove, the White Mangrove, and the Black Mangrove together constitute the mangrove hybrid in this park. The mangroves in the area also help in lessening the tropical storms’ effects like the havoc created when hurricanes arrive.

Many tourists come to visit the national park in the months of April and October, since these are considered the best months for bird watching. During these months around 350 bird species flock to the breeding places in Central, North and South America. So, many exotic and orient birds can be seen in the park during this season.
