The Bahamas Charter Yacht Show premiered in January 2023 and attracted an impressive turnout of more than 40 boats in its first ever installment.  The first ever Bahamas Charter Yacht Show (BCYS) was hailed an outstanding success, putting a marker down for the archipelago as a premier yachting destination in the region. 
​
The show brings together charter yachts, yacht brokers and managers, Bahamian marinas, marine and yacht trade companies. It allows yachts to showcase their vessels and crew to charter brokers and charter managers from around the world. Marinas and resort properties throughout The Bahamas also showcase their offerings, and local companies that cater to and service yachts while in The Bahamas are represented.
 
Over the last decade, charter yachting has grown in economic importance to The Bahamas, providing millions of dollars in registration fees to the country’s treasury and millions more in terms of direct expenditure. Hundreds of Bahamians are employed as crew members, in vessel upkeep and repair, and in cleaning and detailing , among others services. 
 
The upcoming show will do more to showcase the beauty and destination options within The Bahamas. Join us in January 2026 and experience why The Bahamas remains the world's most breathtaking yachting destination.
