There is McDuff's Restaurant/Norman's Cay Beach Club on the west side
near the middle of the air strip:

We ate at McDuff's twice, once going south and again coming back.
The food is good and they have a few rental beach cottages.

We anchored near here, took the dinghy across to the old dock, and
then walked up the road to the air strip:
