Margaritaville Beach Resort Nassau

Less than a 10-minute walk from the resort you will reach Downtown Nassau, Bahamas. Downtown Nassau, roughly twenty square blocks of historic architecture, luxury shops, modern murals, and magnificent monuments, has captured the curiosity of adventurous travellers for decades. Why? Because the streets of downtown Nassau, unlike any other island of the Bahamas, are living, breathing monuments to island cultures both centuries-old and magnificently modern.

Every island in The Bahamas has Fish Fry. It’s that quintessentially Bahamian, culinary gathering place, usually a collection of street vendors or beach shacks where some of the best, most authentic cuisine in The Bahamas can be found. Perhaps the biggest, most extravagant fish fry in The Bahamas can be found on Arawak Cay, Nassau. Just one long strip that begins with traditional sit-down restaurants and ends beachside, where beach shack barbecues serve up a whole new vibe.

Right in the middle of the high-end and boutique shops on Nassau’s Bay Street you’ll find the world-famous Straw Market. It’s home to handmade Bahamian crafts, gifts, souvenirs, and items such as hand-woven straw hats, bags, mats, dolls, conch shell jewelry, and wood carvings—and all available at very reasonable prices, especially if you’re good at negotiating!
