On the water

~ Chat-n-Chill- This is a must see while in Exuma.  The world famous bar is located on Stocking Island and is a short water taxi away from the government docks in Georgetown.  Relax on the beautiful beach while sipping cocktails and enjoying the water and sun.  You can play some sand volleyball, eat fresh conch salad, pet the sting rays or mingle with the sail boaters.  It is an amazing place.  info@chatnchill.com.   242-336-2700

~Lumina Point- Amazing new lunch and dinner spot tucked away in a cove behind Chat-n-Chill.  Food and views are absolutely amazing.  It is only accessible by boat but is well worth the trip.  (800) 686-5935

~St Francis-  Another incredible lunch spot across Moriah Harbor.  Enjoy an incredible lunch as you look out over Moriah Harbor and the beautiful sailboats moored there.  Walk to the top of the hill and over to the ocean side to enjoy some beautiful views of the ocean.  242-557-9629

On the land

All restaurants are fairly casual on the island. However based on food and dress some are a little less “casual” than others. You could wear a swim suit and t-shirt to every restaurant on the island but I would recommend a golf shirt and casual shorts for some.

Golf Shirt Restaurants

~ Peace and Plenty Club and Restaurant- Located in Georgetown. Delicious restaurant with an Italian flair. The owners are form Italy. They have great outdoor bar with a beautiful view of Stocking Island. Also be sure to check out the indoor bar. One of my favorite spots on the island. Even if the indoor bar is not serving it is worth walking in and checking it out. On Thursday night they have a “rake and scrape band” with BBQ buffet. 242-336-2551.

T-shirt and swim suit Restaurants

~Island Boy Café- Our favorite place for lunch. Delicious food and quick service. This is a great place to sit in town and people watch from the deck. They have wonderful wraps, amazing wings, and great cheeseburgers. 242-336-4422

~Palm Bay- Great place to get pizza and some bar food to watch the game.  Exuma’s version of a sports bar.  242-336-2787

~ The Fish Fry- Great place to go for authentic, fresh Bahamian fare.  Conch salads/sandwiches, BBQ Ribs, Lobster, Grouper, Plantains, Peas & Rice - the list goes on and on. There are several huts to choose from, but Shirley's is a definite favorite of ours. Fish fry is located about 15 minutes from house on left side of Queens HWY just before you get to town. There are around 12 “food and drink shacks” painted different colors. Each “shack” is very unique in its own way. Be sure to check them all out.

~Big D’s- Casual restaurant with local food and fresh conch salad. Amazing views and casual atmosphere. It is located about 20 mins North of house on right side of Queens Hwy. May want to call ahead as their hours are “hit or miss”. 242-358-0059

Little Exuma- its about a half hour drive West.  Nice drive and good way to see the island

~Santana's- I feel this is another must do.  Dee is the owner and is usually serving.  Take a look at her photo album to see photos from the filming of “Pirates of the Caribbean”.  She serves a great lobster lunch with local sides.  Very reasonable.   Be sure to stop in Mom’s bakery right next door.  It doesn’t look like much but “Mom” is awesome and has some great breads.  Gotta get a slice of the Rum cake.  242-345-4102

~Tropic Breeze-  Fantastic new restaurant.  Krissy is the local chef and he was trained in the US.  Very reasonably priced with an amazing view.  The burger topper with lobster is incredible!!  242-345-4100
