I'm not sure about taxes but fuel and food are expensive. This week diesel was $3.95/gallon and gas was $4.19/gallon at Great Harbour. The mail boat arrived with fresh veggies from Nassau on Wednesday. We paid pretty much double the US price across the board. We also paid $300 for our cruising permit when we arrived.
Yesterday we caught 3 grouper, a 5 lb red snapper and six conch. Being here, Priceless. Even the manatees are friendly.
