Junkanoo art

If there is a souvenir that is closest to the culture of the Bahamas, it has to be Junkanoo art. Junkanoo is an annual street parade featuring people dressed in colorful costumes, fancy headdresses, and unusual masks.

Charming miniatures, which are very popular, can be found in any souvenir shop throughout the year. You can also buy Junaku-themed paintings, jewelry, and decorations.

Its beautiful pale pink shell is polished and transformed into bracelets, earrings, and necklaces available in a variety of designs, colors, and budgets. Pink conch jewelry with pearls is among the most coveted in the Bahamas, so don't hesitate to splurge on it.

Batik

Batik is the signature fabric of the Bahamas, which is used to make beautiful clothes, tablecloths, and accessories. It has a pattern that is complemented by seahorses, hibiscus flowers, and corals.

Buy products on the island of Andros, which has been attracting attention for more than 40 years with its home-made batik products.
