Challenge your family to a friendly game of corn hole or oversized board games, right in the heart of this vibrant cultural hub.
When it’s time to refuel, enjoy the included buffet lunch featuring a delicious selection of Bahamian and international dishes. Choose from a burger, hotdog, veggie burger, or chicken burger, paired with BBQ chicken, Bahamian peas n’ rice, fresh salads, corn, French fries, and juicy tropical fruit. Wash it all down with fruit punch, lemonade, or iced tea. Still hungry? Swing by our food truck row for made-to-order snacks or a refreshing ice cream.
