Nassau See & Do Guide: Straw Market

Straw Market

Shopping - Markets
Beginning of Central Bay Street, Nassau, New Providence Island, Bahamas

For island curios and original handcrafts, this is the place to shop. Although it is in a temporary location, the market continues to be a center point for tourists who wish to buy island crafts, knockoffs and loads of cheap trinkets. Just as the name implies, there's plenty of items made from straw, such as hats, baskets and bags, as well as art pieces. Lots of local color. Be prepared to haggle and have fun. It's always a treat to drop by. Beginning of Central Bay Street, Nassau.
