Caribbean Cuisine Done Right

Before you arriven

The yacht's crew will be familiar with your preference sheet regarding food. The crew provisions for the trip, and the chef prepares as many meals aboard as you desire. a good idea vs requesting your usual favorites is to let the chef take your palate on an adventure? Imagine the cocktail hour on your yacht: crab stuffed mushrooms, salmon mousse, shrimp kabobs, fresh oysters, local specialities?.

Bahamian Seafood

The Bahamas, a typical charter destination relatively near the US, is still a world away in customs and culture. Part of any country's culture is determined by its food, and the Bahamas features a seafood-heavy diet. Hopefully, you incorporate this into your charter to get a real Bahamas experience. Request a dinner of lobster rolls, fish tacos, or tuna tartar. Also commonly found on Bahamian menus are grouper, yellow tail, and red snapper.

Conch, an ocean mollusk whose large pink-lined, spiny shell houses some delicious meat inside, is ubiquitous in the Bahamas. You will find all kinds of offerings as you peruse the menus on land. Fresh conch is treated with lime juice and spices and served as a cold salad a la ceviche. Conch is also deep fried (a.k.a. “cracked conch”), made into fritters, or thrown into chowder. Ask your chef which preparation is their speciality, or just let him surprise you at mealtime!
