~ Experience an Out-Island Adventure ~ Like a Bahamian with a Bahamian!

Q: Can we drink the Tap Water?
A: We do have a whole house filter on the outside line, and we also have a water cooler in the residence, which we use for drinking and cooking. That water is double filtered. All of our ice is made with the double filtered water. You can feel free to fill your water pitcher and ice trays as needed from our residence. There is also water available for purchase on the Island.

What type of fish can we expect to catch?
It's the Atlantic Ocean. We have an abudance of Grouper in several different species. We have Snapper, Red, Lane, Grey, you name it. Yellow Tail & Chad come into the shoreline, along with many other tropical fish. You can snorkle for lobster & conch right off of our front yard.

What about "Big Game Fishing"?
We have plenty of Marlin & Swordfish in the waters around South Andros. 

What type of  night-life can we enjoy?
There are several small, local bars within walking distance, some have dance music. Tourists are always welcome to come & mingle with the locals. You will hear them talk about life here on the out-island and you will quickly realize that the majority of the locals are related to each other, either by blood or by marriage.

We have several school teachers from England who are accustomed to frequenting the pubs. You will surely meet them after school hours. Basically, everyone knows everyone else, and you will be a stranger here for about the first 10 minutes.

Is there any  Gambling?
We do not have any Gambling Casino's in South Andros. The Native Bahamian People are forbidded from gambling. This being a Family Island with few tourist, does not have the clientel for a casino. However, our Locals enjoy playing Domino's. You may try your hand at that in the local watering holes. Just not for money.

You may want to split your trip up and spend a night or two at the casino's in Nassau. That way everyone in your group can get their fix!
