The Bahamas is home to several species of iguanas, but some are doing better than others. In an effort to help the San Salvador iguana population, Seacology and CIBC FirstCaribbean Bank teamed up to fund the San Salvador Iguana Conservation Centre. The Centre is located at Gerace Research Center, and overseen by Professor William Hayes of Loma Linda University. Local conservation organization San Salvador’s Living Jewels is involved with education efforts and raising awareness of the importance of habitat conservation to the iguana’s future.

Check out this video about the manatees from Spanish Wells that were rescued by Atlantis made by RV Sea Watch. Conch Salad was there for Rita and Georgie’s release in the Berries last week. Got some cool video of them and other manatees while we were there -give us a couple weeks to edit it all together.
Our second look at the reggae band Willis and the Illest, this time focusing on the lead guitarist, bassist and drummer (Nano, Quinton and Bailey). Could these talented musicians be leading the resurrection of the live scene in Nassau?
Leave a comment and let us know what you think of their music and where to find other original Bahamian musicians.
