5 Local Souvenirs You Shouldn’t Leave Nassau Without

5 Local Souvenirs You Shouldn’t Leave Nassau Without

Looking for something to take home that truly captures your Bahamas trip? Skip the basic keychains and go for something authentic. Here are 5 locally loved souvenirs that make the perfect memory of Nassau — and support Bahamian culture at the same time.

1. Handmade Straw Bags & Hats

You’ll find these all over the Straw Market downtown. Each piece is handwoven and unique — a true piece of Bahamian craftsmanship. Ask for the name of the artist and you’ve got a story to go with your gift.

2. Local Hot Sauce or Pepper Jelly

Bring a bit of island spice home with you. Brands like Bahamas Blaster or local market blends add a kick to any dish and are TSA-friendly in small bottles.

3. Bahamian-Printed Clothing or Wraps

Colorful wraps, T-shirts, and even beach dresses made locally are popular and comfortable. Look for designs with Junkanoo colors or native prints.

4. Locally Made Rum or Coconut-Based Liqueurs

John Watling’s Rum or Ricardo coconut liqueur are favorites. These make great gifts or additions to your home bar — and give you a taste of the islands long after your flight home.

5. Art from Local Galleries

Check out pop-up vendors downtown or galleries like the National Art Gallery of The Bahamas. You can pick up small paintings, prints, or wood carvings that showcase real island talent.
