Island Culture

Part British, part Spanish, part West African, Nassau Paradise Island emits a cultural vibe all its own. Here, find out what it means to be Bahamian. Islanders like a party, and visitors are always welcome. Join the festivities during a weekly fish fry or the semiannual Junkanoo celebrations, where costumed paraders shimmy down the street to the tune of rake ‘n’ scrape bands. Bring home a handmade souvenir, such as a straw basket or clay bead necklace. And be sure to save time for a leisurely walk past the pretty pastels of our historic streets.
