Then, the next stop is Port Lucaya Marketplace where you can pick up local art work, find unique Bahamian souvenirs and other tasty goodies such as local made chocolates flavored with native fruit. At this stop there are a number of restaurants and bars that feature native dishes if you are a foodie and enjoy sampling local typical dishes. Then, tour the public park Taino Beach, Smith's point - Home of the Famous Fish Fry, Sanctuary Bay - Home of the Unexso Dolphins, as well as Millionaire's Row, and Mather Town as you learn about everything Bahamian - the customs, history, culture, native food and drink, traditions and all there is to know about The Bahamas. Then you have the option to walk the Garden of the Groves (admission not included), before continuing on to the Lucayan National Park in the East End of Grand Bahama. At the Lucayan National Park, you will tour two caves; Ben's Cave and Burial Mound, before crossing the street to Gold Rock Beach.

The drive along the east coast takes in all the local settlements with views to their beautiful beaches right in front of the entrance to their homes. The East is all about magnificent beaches with powder white sand that stretch for miles and miles and miles. There is nothing on them except the birds, the trees and brilliant turquoise crystal clear waters for your tranquility and enjoyment. This daytrip is for all those persons who love nature and exploring beautiful beaches for total rest and relaxation.
