Gate A shops list this as Bahama Hand Prints
Near Terminal A departures at NAS, Bahama Hand Prints sells locally made textiles in bright island colors and bold patterns. Expect bags, dresses, shirts, and home items printed and sewn in the Bahamas, not mass-imported tourist stock. Prices run higher than the generic souvenir stands in Terminals B and C, but the fabric quality and stitching feel like proper boutique pieces, not throwaway beachwear.
Most flights out of A leave between 10:00 and 16:00, and the shop generally opens by mid-morning to catch that bank, then stays open into the early evening while US departures clear. If you have a midday departure to the US or Canada, you can usually duck in after immigration and duty free without cutting it too close. Evening regional flights may find it closing or half-staffed, so shop earlier in the day if something catches your eye.
Small pouches and zip bags start around $25–$30, with larger totes and crossbody bags running $70–$120 depending on size and fabric. Clothing pieces like shift dresses and tunics usually price above $100, and pillow covers or table runners sit somewhere in between. If you just want a locally made gift under $50, focus on coin purses, makeup bags, or tea towels instead of the bigger fashion pieces.
You clear security in Terminal A before reaching Bahama Hand Prints, so this is a true last-chance stop before boarding, not something you can hit on arrival. Plan one extra loop of the gate area and give yourself 10 minutes here before you queue at your A-gate boarding call.
