5 Best Shopping in The Southern Out Islands, Bahamas

This fly-and-tackle shop and souvenir boutique, usually open Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, 9 am to 5 pm, is located in Stella Maris on Queen's Highway. In addition to fishing gear, they sell cold drinks and snacks, souvenirs, gifts, apparel, and jewelry. James "Docky" Smith is the fishing guru behind Bonafide Bonefishing. A Long Islander, he is a popular and knowledgeable bonefishing guide who "knows the flats." 

There is a small gift shop in the lobby with clothes, swimsuits, island straw works, island books, souvenirs, cold drinks, and sundries.

Hillside is probably the largest store on Long Island and the ideal place to stock up if you're self-catering or want snacks in between mealtimes. Here you can find lots of fresh produce and dairy items, dry foods, toiletries, and supplies. In the back of the store you will find just about anything, from snorkeling gear and ice chests to towels and assorted housewares. Hillside can also tell you where and how to get fresh lobster, snapper, grouper, and more. There are seafood vendors living nearby.

This well-stocked convenience store can be handy for everyday items.

Tingums is Bahamian for "I don't know what to call it." This cute gift shop sells clothing, jewelry, gifts, souvenirs, books, and toiletries.
