The Government of The Bahamas Introduces New Travel and Testing Protocols Designed to Eliminate the Need to Quarantine OCTOBER 2, 2020 NASSAU, Bahamas, 1st October 2020 – The Islands of The Bahamas remains committed to welcoming visitors to its shores and providing an exceptional tropical vacation coupled with our world famous warm and friendly hospitality, while, responsibly enforcing public health and safety measures to protect residents and visitors alike. While 15th October is still set for the reopening of the tourism sector, until 31st October all incoming visitors must “Vacation in Place” for 14 days or the duration of stay, whichever is shorter, which means limiting the vacation experience to the grounds and amenities of a traveler’s hotel or accommodations. Beginning 1st November, The Bahamas will remove the mandatory “Vacation in Place” requirement for all visitors, returning citizens and residents thereby, enabling everyone to move about and explore the destination beyond the confines of their hotel or other accommodations. The new protocols will require visitors, and returning citizens and residents to obtain a RT-PCR (swab) test no more than seven (7) days prior to their travel to The Bahamas. In addition, and to ensure that travelers remain COVID free, a rapid antigen test will be conducted upon arrival, and then again four days (96 hours) after arrival in The Bahamas. Children ten (10) and under are exempt from taking a rapid antigen test. Specifics are as follows: Prior to Travel: • COVID-19 RT-PCR Test: All persons traveling to The Bahamas must obtain a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR (swab) test taken no more than seven (7) days prior to the date of arrival. The name and address of the lab, where the test was performed, must be clearly displayed on the test result. • Children ten (10) and under and pilots and crew of commercial airlines, who remain overnight in The Bahamas, are exempt from obtaining the RT-PCR test. • Bahamas Health Travel Visa: Once in possession of a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test, all travelers will then be required to apply for a Bahamas Health Travel Visa at travel.gov.bs (click on the International Tab) where the required test must be uploaded. The cost of the visa will depend on the length of stay. Upon Arrival • Day of Arrival (Day One): Rapid Test – All persons entering The Bahamas, at an approved Port of Entry, will receive a Rapid COVID-19 antigen test. If arriving by air, an approved Port of Entry will be: Nassau, Freeport, Marsh Harbour, North Eleuthera, Georgetown (Exuma), Bimini (and Cat Cay) and San Andros (Andros). If arriving by sea, an approved Port of Entry will be: Nassau (Atlantis, Bay Street Marina, Lyford Cay, Albany and Nassau Yacht Haven); Grand Bahama (West End – Old Bahama Bay and Freeport – Lucaya); Abaco (Marsh Harbour Government Dock); Eleuthera (Spanish Wells Marina); Berry Islands (Chubb Cay Club); Bimini (Big Game Club and Cat Cay Club); Exuma (Georgetown Government Dock). American Airlines has indicated that, beginning in late October, they wish to provide each passenger traveling to The Bahamas from Miami with a Rapid COVID-19 antigen test before boarding the plane. These passengers, along with the passengers of any other airlines wishing to provide a similar service, will not be required to complete the Rapid Test upon arrival in The Bahamas. After Arrival • Day Five (96 hours after arrival): Rapid Test – All persons who entered The Bahamas, and who are staying longer than four nights and five days, will be required to take a second Rapid COVID-19 antigen test. To be clear, all visitors departing on Day Five will not be required to obtain this test. The cost of the rapid tests on and after arrival will be included in the cost of the visa. The rapid tests are easy, quick and will yield results in 20 minutes or less with results being provided electronically. Many hotel properties will provide relevant information on testing arrangements, while others will facilitate the required rapid test for their guests. All persons on yachts and other pleasure craft will be able to make arrangements for their required rapid tests at the port of entry or via the relevant website. All other visitors, returning residents and citizens will be able to make arrangements for their required rapid tests at the port of entry or via the relevant website. The On Island Experience: All islands in The Bahamas require the wearing of masks and appropriate social distancing in public places. The Bahamas has remained diligent in its efforts to minimize the spread of COVID-19 throughout the islands, and these measures are imperative to ensure that remains the case. The health and wellbeing of both residents and visitors remain the number one priority of our public health officials. It is important to note, however, that due to fluidity of the COVID-19 situation, both in The Bahamas and worldwide, protocols are subject to change..

When the war came he served in one of the volunteer provincial armies of the British, usually as an officer.

Through The Bahamas' 16 Islands 16 Weddings competition, 16 lucky couples can win the opportunity to join celebrities - such as former Masters champion Adam Scott - who over the years have made The Bahamas their dream locale for tying the knot. Scott created a buzz over the weekend when it was revealed that he was the latest celebrity to wed in The Bahamas, exchanging “I do’s” with longtime girlfriend, Marie Kojzar.

  • Eleuthera 2010
    ELEUTHERA RESEARCH AND STATISTICS DEPARTMENT MINISTRY OF TOURISM 2010 Eleuthera is located in the eastern region of the Bahamas archipelago. It is east of New Providence. The island of Eleuthera is 110 miles long and two miles wide.1 Eleuthera has a raw beauty that is breathtaking. Like The Exumas, and the Abacos, Eleuthera which consists of Harbour Island (3.5 miles long and 1.5 miles wide)2, Spanish Wells, Current Island, Windermere Island, Princess Cay, and others is really a chain of islands. The island of Eleuthera was once called “Eleutheria” meaning freedom (Eleutheria came from a Greek word) by the Puritans otherwise known as the Eleutherian Adventurers who settled there in 1648 after their boat hit a reef near the island.3 The Eleutherian Adventurers were Puritans who sought freedom of religion. They were led by Captain William Sayle.4 Eleuthera is not only an island that is rich in history but it is beautiful as well. Eleuthera has many enchantments that have endeared visitors to the islands for years. One of the enchantments of the island is the famous Glass Window Bridge in Gregory Town which has the deep waters of the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the shallow waters of the Bahama Bank on the other side. Eleuthera boasts some of the most beautiful pink sand beaches in the world. It has pristine beaches, aquamarine water, reefs, many shipwrecks, pineapple fields, rolling hills, beautiful cliffs, caves and beautiful coves that are perfect romantic hideaways. Eleuthera has these beautiful cliffs and vistas all along the pristine coastline.

  • 40287 Final FRENCH LEAVE NEW2.Indd
    Nestled between magnificent coral reefs that protect its shoreline and swaying coconut palm trees towering above the landscape is the most beautiful pink sand beach in the world on the most beautiful island in the Bahamas. The beach is French Leave and the island is Eleuthera. Here, a rich tapestry of island history surrounds you. Over three hundred sixty years ago, a small group of English pilgrims from Bermuda landed on this island seeking religious freedom. They named the colorful, sun-drenched island Eleuthera, a Greek word meaning “ Freedom.” A fitting name that also reflects the island's calm, quiet grace and unspoiled natural beauty. Breathtakingly beautiful, Eleuthera is 90 miles of deserted beaches, great elevations and long-forgotten pineapple plantations. Discover century old churches, antique homes, and serene colonial settlements. Every day brings warm sunshine, friendly people, a smile and a wave. Beneath the shimmering turquoise waters lie wonderful coral reefs with brilliantly colored fish so abundant, it is truly a delight to experience. And when night falls, one can see more stars in an evening than might be seen in a lifetime. And with perfect year 'round weather, the season is anytime. This island was the very first of the Bahamian islands to be settled by Europeans. Today it remains one of the Caribbean's best kept secrets. In certain locations it's no more than a mile wide. Its leeward western shore faces Exuma Sound. The eastern shore opens onto the cobalt Atlantic Ocean with its unimaginable fishing and diving opportunities. Eleuthera's dramatic topography includes high elevations and rolling green hills with dazzling, panoramic vistas of the ocean in all its splendor.

  • Island Roots Festival Draws Hundreds a Pirate Theme Brought Interest in Cay’S Past
    VOLUME 15, NUMBER 10, MAY 15th, 2007 Island Roots Festival draws hundreds A pirate theme brought interest in cay’s past By Mirella Santillo Green Turtle Cay’s Island Roots Heritage Festival was officially opened on May 4th by Commissioner Lopez from Key West, who stated “without Green Turtle Cay, there would not be a Key West as we know it now.” The festival was created in 1977 to celebrate the first year anniversary of the sisterhood between Key West and New Ply- mouth. It was not held for 27 years but the festival has gained growing popularity since its return in 2004. It is a cultural and enter- taining event aimed at reminding people of the island’s history and of their roots. It also is intended to keep alive the ties between New Plymouth and Key West, which share a common Loyalist heritage. This year’s theme was Pirates and it is only normal that the pirate ship of the Conch Republic, (Key West) the schooner Wolf, heralded the festivities with a cannonade followed by a statement from the Admiral and First Sea Lord, Captain Finbar Gittleman, “We come not to plunder, merely to enjoy.” The Wolf’s first mate Julie “Blos- The Fourth Annual Island Roots Festival brought together Abaconians from all communities as well as many visitors from Florida som” McEnroe and the crew of the schoo- and elsewhere.
