Bahamians love breakfast, and what we refer to as ‘breakfast’ will certainly not conjure up images of eggs, toast and jam, pancakes & maple syrup. Our breakfasts are almost entirely savory.

We don’t have to convince you that it’s hot here in The Bahamas, especially during the summer months.

Luckily, Nassau is stocked with restaurants, specialty boutiques, beach stalls, and roadside stands…
There’s nothing quite like a night on the town, sipping cool cocktails and listening to a live band croon to the melodies of the island.

There once was a time when sailboats were a lifeline to Bahamian natives, providing transport to and from their island neighbours and access to the world at large.
