A little planning up front means your trip starts without a hitch. Here are the best ways to stock up before you reach Staniel Cay.
Order online near the airport, choose delivery, and add your Staniel flight details. They box it and deliver to the airline two hours before departure. Tip: order frozen peas or corn as ice packs for your cheese and milk.
Departing FXE? Hit Publix, Whole Foods, or a specialty shop before the hangar, then hop your Makers Air flight. Greatest variety and U.S. pricing, ideal for specific dietary needs or brands.
Bring a cooler of dry ice and your favorite frozen goods, up to $100 per person duty-free (save receipts). Easy hack: order Omaha Steaks to arrive the day before you fly, toss them in the cooler, and go.
Think well-stocked 7-Elevens: essentials, liquor, and beer at roughly twice U.S. prices. Great in a pinch, but variety is limited, so don't count on gourmet items without prior arrangement.
Small island shops, restocked by weekly boat. Shop on delivery day (usually Thursday) for the best selection.
The island's best prices since 1953, in the pink building steps from the SCYC marina. Restocks Thursdays.
The best overall selection on the island, up the hill past the police station. Air-conditioned, and takes cards.
The "Walmart" of Staniel: groceries, coolers, chargers, even pig food. Visa and Mastercard accepted.
Dine onboard whenever you like, but three dinners ashore capture the essence of the Exumas.
Kick off at the iconic Staniel Cay Yacht Club. The heartbeat of the island: great food, sharks off the dock, and a lively crowd.
A picturesque dinner with top-tier service and breathtaking views at Fowl Cay Resort. Book early by email, availability for non-guests is very limited.
Wind down at the main SCYC restaurant (distinct from the bar), with authentic Bahamian cuisine in a proper dining setting. Reserve at the club office.
Tell us your dates and group and we'll help you provision, book the dinners ashore, and settle in stress-free.
