Grand Bahama Island can expect to see a spike in visitors, October 27-29, 2016 as hundreds converge on the beautiful Grand Lucayan Resort to attend Faith Fest, a fun-filled weekend designed for spiritual immersion and physical rejuvenation.

Construction is set to resume on stalled mega-resort Baha Mar thanks to a new agreement between the Bahamas' Government, China's Export-Import Bank and "a world class hotel and casino operator", announced Prime Minister Perry Christie last night.
