YEAR ROUND ACTIVITIES

Smith's Point Fish Fry
Wednesday nights year round
 

The "Fish Fry" at Smith's Point was started a number of years ago by the residents of that small town, just outside of Lucaya, to help raise funds for their church. It has become so popular that similar fish fries are now held throughout Grand Bahama Island and the other Islands of The Bahamas.

This unique cultural and dining experience is a fun mid-week activity that sets the stage for your weekend.

Mini "Crab Fest"
Friday nights year round

The indigenous "land-crab" (primarily native to Andros island) is the main attraction at the "Mini Crab Fest."

Mr. Oscar Porter, the proprietor and a descendant of Andros, proudly serves up dishes like Andros Boiled Crab & Dough with Cassava, Andros Crab Soup and Andros Stuffed Crab. Accompaniments are their famous "Gully Wash" (a concoction of green coconut juice, sweetened milk and gin) and the music of a native Rake & Scrape band. Be sure to get there early, as these delicacies often sell out quickly!

People-to-People in Grand Bahama
Year round

The People-to-People Program is a community involvement venture that brings visitors and Bahamian residents together on a one-to-one basis. Local volunteers act as personal hosts to visitors to the island. They come from a cross section of the community, and have been screened by People-to-People executives. They genuinely enjoy meeting people from other countries; they want to make visitors feel at home.
