Eating out on Grand Bahama
Dining out in Grand Bahama is a treat for food lovers, especially those of the seafood persuasion. Impressive varieties of the day’s fresh catch can be bought in dozens of restaurants around Lucaya Port and Freeport. Don’t forget to start your meal with a conch-salad appetiser – an Island favourite. Poultry and pork are other typical dishes, and are mostly curried, steamed or fried and eaten with rice or salad. Spices abound, so beware if you don’t like it hot!
Restaurants on Grand Bahama Island are generally mid-range, with a sprinkling of high end eateries around Freeport and Lucaya. Luciano’s at Port Lucaya Marketplace and Marina is probably at the top end of the pile, and has been positively reviewed in a handful of reputed publications, among them the NY Times.
Restaurants vary in size and style, from charming bistros to loud and ambient Irish bars. Like most things, referrals are generally the best way to find the quality you’re looking for. Our staff at Suffolk Court are happy to point visitors to top eateries in the area.
Here is a link to the most reviewed restaurants in Grand Bahama, according to the world-famous Trip Advisor website:

Niche Tourism in the Bahamas
For some people, a run-of-the-mill vacation just doesn’t appeal. Innate curiosity, is a genetically encoded trait that is the enemy of boredom. For such a personality type, the Bahamas has much to offer.
A yoga retreat under palm trees, anyone? With a seafront vista? The Bahamas, without a doubt, is a seductress of the soul. The islands are peppered with other unique treasures, such as Lucayan National Park, home of the world’s largest underwater cave system. The Arawak Indians lived in the stalactite-decorated caves long before Christopher Columbus discovered the islands of the Bahamas. The nearby mangrove system of Gold Rock Beach is a picture perfect location for kayakers.
If that doesn’t float your boat, there’s more. Pony lovers can spend days riding friendly, well-trained ponies along Grand Bahama beaches and remote coastal trails. The treks are intended to give tourists a special vantage point from which to take in the breathtaking scenery that Grand Bahama is famed for.
The Rand Nature Centre, just outside Freeport, sits on 100 acres of land, making it double the size of Lucayan National Park. From here, birdwatchers can spy pelicans, hummingbirds, spoonbills, flamingos and other species of bird.
Undersea adventurers can use the services of qualified scuba divers to check out stunning coral reefs or to make contact with dolphins.
