Lookout Cay
The arrival point of Lookout Cay is known as Mabrika Cove. The word “mabrika” means “welcome” in Taino, which is the language of the Indigenous people of The Bahamas, the Lucayans.

Lookout Cay
To get to the other side of the island, you must take a tram from Mabrika Cove to the Goombay Cultural Center tram stop.
![Tram](https://mickeyblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/2024-dcl-disney-magic-lookout-cay-at-lighthouse-point-25-scaled.jpg)

Tram
The tram ride is about 8 minutes, and it’s not a walkable distance — so you have to take the tram.

Disney previously shared that they worked closely with “Bahamian artists and advisors to create a destination that represents the natural beauty and rich culture of The Bahamas, brought to life through Disney storytelling and the unparalleled service of local cast and crew.”

Lookout Cay
Disney also noted that Lookout Cay “pays tribute to the beauty of nature” and features “distinctive, sweeping architecture in bright, saturated hues” and “artistic expressions of the native flora and fauna of The Bahamas and the pageantry and history of Junkanoo parades.”
