Though most Bahamian islands have little shops and boutiques, the
best shopping here can be found on Nassau/Paradise Island and Grand
Bahama, where most Bahamas vacation rentals are located. The variety
of stores in these areas, filled with duty-free items like jewelry,
perfumes, and electronics, are likely to keep guests of Bahamas
vacation rentals busy for at least a day.All goods in the Bahamas
are also free of sales tax, so keep an eye out for the great deal
you're bound to find. The best boutiques in Nassau and Freeport are
usually within a short trip of Bahamas vacation rentals on those
islands.
The Straw Market is possibly the best-known shopping area in all of
New Providence, and is the largest of its kind in the world. A stop
at the market, where you'll find (mostly) local women hawking
everything from hats and totes to shark's teeth necklaces, is a
must-see for visitors to Bahamas vacation rentals. Just east of the
market is another popular assembly of vendors - the International
Bazaar, which sells of funky collection of just about everything
imaginable. Guests of Bahamas vacation rentals generally stock up on
fun souvenirs here more than anything else.
Freeport has its own International Bazaar selling global arts and
crafts, but duty-free vendors have set up shop here as well. Located
just a few minutes from Bahamas vacation rentals on the island's
southern coast, this 10-acre site is almost guaranteed to have a
little something for everyone. Tourists can even mix a unique brand
of perfume and bring a bottle back to their Bahamas vacation
rentals. Duty-free shopping is also plentiful at the Port Lucaya
Marketplace and throughout downtown Freeport. |
