Laundry near the East Bay Street marinas

25° 4.5′ N · 77° 19.1′ W · approximate

Nassau has no laundromat on the cruiser trail that the sources confirm, so laundry is done in the marinas: self-service machines at Nassau Yacht Haven and Bay Street Marina, and machines at Palm Cay and Lyford Cay for boats out of town.

Practical

Coordinate approximate: Nassau Yacht Haven marina pin, representing the East Bay Street marina strip. Nassau Yacht Haven: self-service laundry on site for guests (Association of Bahamas Marinas also lists a full-service laundry room, guests only); Dry Clean Alternative is nearby. Bay Street Marina: laundry facilities on site, but its $20/day dinghy-dock pass does not include laundry or bathrooms (No Foreign Land). Palm Cay Marina has laundry (No Foreign Land). Lyford Cay Club Marina: washers $1.75 a load in 2018 with a dinghy-day fee (verify locally). Anchored boats usually take a slip for a night to do laundry, water and provisioning together.
