Bahamian beach vibes. Great place to hang with the stingrays for the day. The conch salad is delicious. The beach/seating area is full of pine needles so it really hurts to walk around barefoot here. Chat ‘N’ Chill is a must-visit when you’re in Exuma. It offers the perfect laid-back island vibe that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Whether you plan to hang out for a few hours or spend the whole day, it’s easy to relax here—wade in the shallow, crystal-clear waters with a drink in hand or take a walk and explore the area. The food is solid—not over-the-top amazing, but definitely satisfying. The fresh conch, made to order, is a highlight and the prices are very reasonable. If you’re visiting with kids, there’s plenty to keep them entertained like beach volleyball and cornhole. I’d recommend bringing a football or some snorkel gear to give them more to do. Need to unwind even more? There’s usually someone offering massages right on the beach. One heads-up: bring cash. Their credit card machine wasn’t working during our visit. And I understand coolers are highly discouraged. All in all, another great experience at Chat ‘N’ Chill. Highly recommend if you’re looking to relax, recharge, and enjoy a true island atmosphere. If your in Exuma and are renting a boat or are willing to take a water taxi over from the mainland I recommend coming to chat and chill , the atmosphere is awesome , everyone talking to everyone , sharing experiences and recommendations, the food was ok , wouldn’t expect much , we rented a boat so we stopped here for dinner , feeding the sting rays is awesome , there is a small gift shop as well you can take a look at , I believe Sundays they have a pig roast I would imagine it gets busier then

Mike runs a very fun bar. The service and guest engagement is what will keep me coming back. The best Macaroni & bbq ribs.

Good food for a small bar on a small island across the channel from Great Exuma. You'll need a boat ride to get there. Stocking Island is beautiful and peaceful. The beach right by the bar is unbelievably beautiful. We rented an umbrella and chairs and was set up right by the clear water. When we got hungry, we walked a few steps to the bar/grill and ordered food. Sure, it took a while to get our food but we were on island time like the locals. The food was good and hot. We enjoyed our day trip to the island.
