Bimini, Bahamas -
If you missed the live broadcast from Bimini Sands Resort & Marina, you missed a great show! Radio Man and History Lady will be definitely doing a rewind of their Bimini New Year’s weekend. From the End of the World Saloon, fried whole snapper at CJ’s, and fresh Bimini bread delivered by Santa to conch salad and ice cold Kalik’s at Stuart Conch Stand and Ebbie's Bonefish Club, flaming B52's at Mackey's Sand Bar, magic buses, and a wild Junkanoo rushout, you will hear all the details of another great Bahamas remote.
Is there the possibility of a revival of a great Stuart tradition...

Boom-Pineapple Wine...Dolla' 50 all da' time - Jul 14, 2011 - 4:57:51 PM
 Taking some time off
from being a tourist (recent visit to Nassau and shows from Abaco, Grand
Bahama twice, and Heathcote Botanical Gardens), Talkin’ Tourism will be
back in its home studio at Sailfish Marina, Stuart, Florida. Joining
Radio Man this week will be special guest co-host Ed Griffith, the
general manager of the Courtyard Marriott-Hutchinson Island.
Ed
had the opportunity to visit Gregory Town Eleuthera, Bahamas for the
town's annual Pineapple Festival and Talkin’ Tourism wants to hear all
the details. This is particularly big news since a major Treasure Coast
“connection” exists between Jensen Beach, Florida and Gregory Town,
Eleuthera; these two towns have shared a 20-plus year Sister City
relationship. Pass the pineapples (or BOOM pineapple wine) please!

Back to Grand Bahama for some Mango Man, Flamingo Bay, Red Beard's and Nature Tourism - Jun 30, 2011 - 10:18:32 PM
The trip to Grand Bahama Island several weeks ago with the Bahama Tourist
Office’s Summer Boating Fling to Port Lucaya was just enough to tempt
Talkin’ Tourism
to go back and find out more cool stuff about the closest island to the
Treasure Coast and the “Gateway to the Northern Bahamas." With Robin
still attending weddings and getting into “nuptial tourism," Radio Man
will have the pleasure of sharing hosting duties with none other than
Bimini Mango Man.
Mango Man is no stranger to the Treasure Coast and is one of
the most popular “one man band” acts in The Bahamas. While residing on
Grand Bahama, Mango can be found engaging audiences on many of the
Family Islands. Mango will probably cover Grand Bahama “wildlife” from
an entertainers point of view...

The following article is from TCPalm.com and is a feature on Talkin' Tourism's Gary Guertin:
Grand Bahama Island,
Bahamas — There has always been a strong connection between Treasure
Coast boaters, anglers and divers and the nearby island nation of the
Bahamas.
Its close proximity is a strong selling point — just 68
miles to Grand Bahama Island. Its crystal clear, pristine and warm
waters welcome visitors. And the diversity of marine life available to
catch, observe, spear, collect and dine on has captured ...

Tourism Office to promote boating to the Islands of the Bahamas. The

tourism industry. The Sustainable Tourism Division of the Bahamas
Ministry of Tourism is responsible for helping to insure the protection
of Bahamian waters and is the administrator of the Blue Flag Programme.
