Nassau, 'Its a Bahamian Ting'

Nassau is the capital of the Bahamas and the most heavily populated island, with 250,000 people. New Providence is 20 x 7 miles and next to it is Paradise island, the home of the Atlantis Resort.

At the base of the bridges that cross over to Atlantis are many stalls all selling Conch salad and conch fritters. This is a real Bahamian traditional food. The empty shells are lying under the table ready for removal. The raw, white flesh of the Conch is diced up and mixed with green peppers, lemon, onions and orange juice. Really tasty!
