Those of you who love to shop
will be excited to know that many items sold in the Bahamas
are duty free. Items that fall under duty free include perfumes,
leather goods, linens, crystal, photographic equipment, and
most important, the sweet nectar of Caribbean Rum. The Bahamas
has a great line and selection of jewelry from all around the
world. If you are looking for a special one of a kind piece
to take back home, you have come to the right place. The |
Bahamas has stands and swap markets outside that sell amazing gifts,
which include woodcarvings, and statues that can be bought for a bargain.
Popular items to buy on the island are straw hats and assorted woven
goods made from straw. Remember when you shop on the Bahamas bargaining
is always allowed. So keep knocking off the value until you are satisfied
with the price!
