Exuma Markets is the only grocery store in downtown Georgetown. While we will stock each February Point villa with basic necessities, should you need to replenish or want to stock up on anything specific, we’d recommend stopping by on your way to February Point. Please note that while Exuma Markets normally has a great selection of groceries (including produce), sometimes options are sparse, so we’d ask guests to be as flexible as possible!
Located right next door to Exuma Markets, 242 Prime Spirits is a great place to find a wide variety of wine, beer and liquor.
Operating since the early 1960s, the Straw Market in downtown George Town is a one-stop-shop to buy locally crafted handbags, baskets, coconut and sand jewelry, woven straw hats, and more.

Spend the afternoon by the water at Peace & Plenty Beach Club, located on Stocking Island. We love their fish sandwiches and conch salad!
