FORT LAUDERDALE, FL  - The Bahamas Consul General, posted in Washington, D.C. Mrs. Paulette Zonicle, recently visited with the staff of The Bahamas Tourist Office, South Florida.  During the brief visit,  the Consul General shared with the Tourism team on the role of The Bahamas Consulate Office in D.C.  She said that her office, the first ever Bahamas Consulate General in that area, was established totally separate from the Embassy of The Commonwealth of The Bahamas - each with individual tasks and services though both representing The Islands Of The Bahamas.   The CG also shared that in her role, she has been working closely with The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, and added that she is looking forward to the opening of a Bahamas Tourist Office in Washington, D.C.  In the photo below, the CG is pictured seated center front and shown with her is a portion of the staff of The Bahamas Tourist Office, Florida.  Currently The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism has two other offices opened stateside – an Atlanta office and an office in New York. In addition to the Embassy Washington and now the Consulate General D.C., The Bahamas has U.S. based Consulate Offices in New York, Atlanta, GA and Miami, Florida.

The Islands Of The Bahamas have a place in the sun for everyone from Nassau and Paradise Island to Grand Bahama to The Abaco Islands, The Exuma Islands, Harbour Island, Long Island and others. Each island has its own personality and attractions for a variety of vacation styles with some of the world’s best scuba diving, fishing, sailing, boating, as well as, shopping and dining. The destination offers an easily accessible tropical getaway and provides convenience for travelers with preclearance through U.S. customs and immigration, and the Bahamian dollar at par with the U.S. dollar. Do everything or do nothing, just remember It’s Better in The Bahamas. For more information on travel packages, activities and accommodations, call 1-800-Bahamas or visit www.Bahamas.com.
