These Proposed Plans will Destroy Seagrass, Coral and Conch. 

This is a map of the North Bay of Sampson Cay with the proposed Yntegra & Rosewood Hotels’ seawall, supply dock and supply vessel route indicated in red and yellow.  

In yellow: The only route available for commercial shipping vessels and barges due to the shallow rocks and sand bars of this area. This route will require dredging through seagrass and coral to allow even the lowest draft ships to access the proposed supply dock. And, the supply vessels must travel within 200 feet of two recreational beaches and directly through several active snorkeling and diving areas, endangering recreational swimmers.

In red: The Yntegra/Rosewood Hotels’ proposed service dock and massive seawall. The service dock would require dredging through seagrass and coral and the seawall would stretch 450 feet into the North Bay, reaching 40 feet wide at its furthest point and cutting across the channel, completely blocking the cut where it is 7 feet deep and disrupting the bay’s natural current and tide flow.

We've documented the marine life existing in the North Bay with geo-tagged underwater photos.
