Bahamas Shopping Overview |
| Shopping
on New Providence Island is centered in Nassau around Bay Street and along the charming
streets off this central square where many of the festive arcades are located. Substantial
bargains - as much as 50% - include cameras, watches, sweaters of all fabrics, Scottish
stoneware, china & crystal, perfume, cologne, and designer clothes & accessories.
Island crafts sold at the Straw Market are abundant and the finds are endless: straw hats
woven in brilliant colors, batik fabrics, sarongs, jewelry made of shells and sharks
teeth, wood carvings and paintings by local artists. Many branches of the Nassau shops
& boutiques can be found on Paradise island at the Bird Cage Walk located between the
Hotel Britannia & Paradise Towers. |
