Grand Life Magazine Winter 23-24 - Flipbook - Page 4
Dear Visitor:
The people of Grand Bahama are renowned for their warm,
genuine hospitality. I am delighted to join them in welcoming
you to an island destination that is unique among the sixteen
island gems that comprise The Islands of The Bahamas.
You will soon see that your choice of Grand Bahama for your
vacation getaway was a great decision. Grand Bahama offers
three distinctly different experiences: the leisurely paced
charm of an authentic Out Island in West Grand Bahama; the
excitement of cosmopolitan Freeport/Lucaya and an ecowonderland in East Grand Bahama.
The diverse array of experiences awaiting you on Grand
Bahama run the gamut of serene to enthralling: award-winning
beaches, national parks featuring pre-historic caves, eco
adventures, People-to-People encounters, land tours, jeep
safaris, duty-free shopping, fishing, scuba diving, snorkelling,
kayaking, golf, cultural villages, lively art & craft markets, haute
cuisine and down home culinary adventures….and much, much
more.
With all there is to see, do and experience on Grand Bahama,
a reliable, trusted guide to orient you around the island would
be most helpful. For such a guide, you need look no further
than the Grand Life Magazine, a Ministry of Tourism,
Investments & Aviation endorsed publication that is available
in both online and hard copy format.
The current winter edition of the Grand Life brings you a
complete update of all there is to know about Grand Bahama,
including feature stories on the history and special charm of
the island; an engaging close up look at local restaurants and
tour operators that are making their mark on the tourism
scene, and a review of Junkanoo, the quintessential Bahamian
spectacular street parade of pulsating music, costume and
dance that takes place annually on New Year’s Day (1st Jan).
Welcome, again, to Grand Bahama, an island in the sun where
we aim to ensure that you have nothing short of a grand
vacation experience.
