Oolitic sand dominates the intertidal zone around the small islands that are covered with vegetation. The Joulter Cays were designated as an Important Bird Area for the endangered piping plover and short-billed dowitcher in 2012. The National Audubon Society's International Alliances Program and the Bahamas National Trust was working together to establish, in 2015, the Joulter Cays as a national park.[1][2] The islands are known as a flyfishing destination for bonefish and permit (fish).[3][4] Matt Jeffery, Deputy Director of Audubon’s International Alliances Program, called Joulter Cays a true paradise and treasure of the Bahamas, rich in birds, fisheries, and other wildlife.[1] However, some local residents are concerned that a national park status would prohibit their bonefish guiding service to tourists.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.birdlife.org/americas/news/establishing-joulter-cays-iba-national-park-bahamas |title=Establishing Joulter Cays IBA as a National Park in the Bahamas |last1=Anadon |first1=Veronica |date=June 11, 2013 |website=birdlife.org |publisher=Bird Life International |access-date=March 20, 2015}} {{Bahamas-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=https://protectedplanet.net/61790|title=Joulter Cays National Park in Bahamas|work=Protected Planet|accessdate=2 January 2019}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.flyfishingconnection.com/andros.html |title=Fly Fishing Andros Island in the Bahamas |author= |website=flyfishingconnection.com |publisher=Copyright ©1998-2007, The Flyfishing Connection |access-date=March 20, 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://bnt.bs/joulter-cays-proposed-park/|title=Joulter Cays Proposed Park|work=The Bahamas National Trust|accessdate=2 January 2019}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/scientists-want-protect-piping-plovers-winter-home/ |title=Why scientists want to protect the piping plover’s winter home |last1=Wise |first1=Cat |date=February 17, 2015 |website=PBS.org |publisher=© 1996 - 2015 NewsHour Productions LLC. |access-date=March 20, 2015}} 3 : Islands of the Bahamas|Important Bird Areas of the Bahamas|Uninhabited islands of the Bahamas |
