The Berry Islands

This romantic dinner cruise is a fundraiser for the Berry Islands Fest Committee. The 'Caribbean Dreams' boat will leave from the dock in Bullock’s Harbour.

This no-rules tournament is organized by the Great Harbour Cay Development Group (Great Harbour Cay Marina) and attracts up to 40 boats from Florida and Georgia, with a number of talented fishermen who are just out to have a little fun. It will also include art, souvenirs, food, music, and dancing.

Times indicated are for lines in the water and weigh-ins on Friday and Saturday. The tournament will begin with a Captains' meeting on Thursday evening and there will be cocktail/dinner events on the other days.

Groups come together and invite the public to rush with them to celebrate Junkanoo, the National Festival of The Bahamas. You can also watch the Boxing Day Junkanoo Parade broadcast live from Bay Street, Nassau, via Cable TV on large screens.

Join the Great Harbour Cay Marina family in a potluck Thanksgiving dinner.

This event is for the community to raise funds through food, drinks, and game sales, taking a proactive approach in the event of a disaster.

Majority Rule Day became a public holiday in 2014. It commemorates The Bahamas gaining majority rule for the first time on January 10, 1967, symbolizing the promise of equality, a level playing field, and fair play for all Bahamians.

Along with the emancipation from slavery in 1836, and gaining Independence from Great Britain in 1973, the achievement of Majority Rule is considered one of the most important events in the history of the country.

This religious holiday marks the end of the Lenten season and is the first day of a long holiday weekend which includes the following Monday after Easter Sunday. On this holy day most Bahamians attend church services and serve fish as their main meal of the day.

This holiday marks the beginning of the beach picnicking season for Bahamians. There are also many cookouts in public parks on the Nassau waterfront; homecomings and regattas are held in some Out Islands.

The second Monday in October, formerly known as "Discovery Day" or "Columbus Day," has now been dedicated to honoring Bahamian national heroes since 2013. An official National Heroes Day ceremony is held with a keynote speech by the Prime Minister, and heroes from a cross-section of civil society are celebrated with a week of activities.

Many people enjoy the day with family gatherings and beach picnics.
