The Poop Deck at Sandyport

The Poop Deck at Sandyport is a Nassau seafood institution with a marina location on West Bay Street that gives families both great food and a genuinely appealing setting. The restaurant sits right on the Sandyport marina, with an outdoor deck that overlooks boat slips and the open water beyond — a natural entertainment for kids who can spend a whole meal spotting fish, watching boats maneuver, and tracking the sky as the sun sets. The menu is built around fresh Bahamian seafood: cracked conch, grilled grouper, lobster in season, and hearty chowders.

The kids menu covers simpler burgers and fish options for younger or more selective eaters. Indoor seating is comfortable and air-conditioned when the heat peaks mid-afternoon. The restaurant has been a consistent performer on Nassau's dining scene for years, evidenced by its 4.

1 rating across more than 500 reviews. Parking is available, which makes it accessible for families with rental cars. Sunset is the prime time to visit — the sky over the marina turns orange and pink, and the outdoor deck becomes one of the prettiest places to eat in Nassau.

Reservations are wise on weekend evenings. The food is reliably good rather than extraordinary, but the overall experience — setting, service, fresh seafood, and views — makes it a reliable choice for families wanting a memorable Nassau dinner.
