Boating

Cheeseburger in Paradise is an annual event that offers a fun-filled day of delicious burgers, drinks, and island vibes. Set against the stunning backdrop of Fiddle Cay, just off Green Turtle and Treasure Cay, this family-friendly event features live music, games, and of course, endless cheeseburgers grilled fresh on the beach. Boaters from around the world converge in an eclectic mix of yachts, sailboats, and catamarans to join locals for a day of celebration, enjoying good food, great company, and the relaxed Bahamian atmosphere.

Local Nassau and family island class 'A' and 'E' native sloops will compete in a series of races in the waters off Montagu Bay. It features sculling, racing, and sailing, plus the popular ‘Catch Me If You Can’ Race, where the class 'A' sloops try to catch a class 'B' sloop.

The competition starts at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday and 2:00 p.m. on Sunday.

This annual charity event, the first of its kind for local maritime sport, benefits the Bahamas National Trust. It initially started in 2016 with 26 participating boats and has now grown to over 70 boats.

Hundreds of boating enthusiasts — personal boat owners, commercial boat charters, engineers and mechanics, captains, and beach-goers — ride in a convoy of powerboats departing from Nassau Harbour (New Providence) and traveling to the northern islands of Eleuthera.

This event is in a class all by itself! Come join in the fun during this blissful summer time where, in addition to the 'C' class boat races, you can enjoy live Bahamian musical performances that will get your feet tapping, games that will get your heart pumping, and Bahamian food and beverages to satisfy all your cravings, and more.
