GROCERY STORES
Stores are located on most islands with Marsh Harbour offering the largest selection of goods.
Generally they are open Monday - Saturday until 5 or 6 PM. (Closed Holidays and Sundays).
You will find a selection of U.S., English, and Bahamian products, imported native fruits and vegetables, and local fisherman bring in fresh catches of fish, conch and crawfish.
Sundays, the Bahamian Family Market in Marsh Harbour, LAV Convenience Store in Elbow Cay and Treasure Cay Convenience Store are open for a limited time and offer a selection of grocery items, freshly baked goods, assorted fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, & milk.
You will shop with the locals and pay the same prices; most items are priced higher than in the U.S., because of the extra cost of freight and duty (import taxes).
If you are arriving on a Sunday, we suggest you plan on eating out the first night (most restaurants are open on Sundays) or bring enough food for your first meal.
