Can anyone here pinpoint where this private island is, where the helicopter departed near Grand Cay Bahamas?

I've been looking at Google Earth sat photos, and "Grand Cay" looks too built-up to be where this originated. Walker Cay to the NW with a runway is a customs entry point, I think. I'm not seeing any small private islands near Grand Cay that might fit the profile, unless it's one of the ones very close to the north/northeast. This might be relevant to shallow water levels, tidal movement of recovered debris, etc.

Where were they taking off from?
