Conservation

Enthusiastically embracing our role as stewards of the earth and this island acreage we call home, at Baker’s Cay, we continually seek out opportunities to create harmony between our guests and the delicate Florida Keys ecosystem.

Throughout the resort, you’ll find elements of sustainability and conservation woven into each carefully considered space, activity, and menu, something we sincerely hope inspires our guests, planners, and team members on and off the resort’s grounds.

Conservation at the Cay

Our focus began with the use of sustainable and locally sourced materials in the resort’s design and continues today with evolving efforts to limit and reduce waste, onsite education programs, partnerships with vendors focused on conservation and upcycling, and a mission to use responsibly grown, caught, and raised ingredients from local producers whenever possible.
