Lucaya Pictorial

These pictures did not show up in the desired sequence but we'll take them one at a time.
(1) The red striped lighhouse used to be the main landmark for Bell Channel but today its almost surrounded by the hotels.
(2) The real landmark from the sea is this ship shaped Westin Hotel. At night it can be mistaken for a anchored cruise ship.
(3)The Dolphin fountain is the entrance to UNEXSO. They do SCUBA instruction, dive boats, and the Dolphin Experience (swim with the dolphins)
(4)Across from UNEXSO is Port Lucaya Marina. This marina is not nearly as nice as GBTC but it is in the middle of the tourist action.
(5) Lucaya, which is not big, is divided into two distinct sections. The Lucaya Marketplace on the port side (entrance shown here)
(6) and the hotels, beaches, pools, etc, on the ocean side
(7) and a Casino, not large but high minimum bets
(8) Several beaches like this one
(9) and beautiful swimming pools like this very long serpentine one.
(10) A change of pace, beautiful sunset over the marina
(11) the DIXIE IV in her slip
(12) The Bahamian version of a service station and small store. Coopers is a landmark just outside the marina. Gas is 4.59/gal.
(13) The GBYC is located on the other side of the harbor from Lucaya proper, so this ferry runs back and forth as needed. Much quieter on this side.
