Mission Statement

All visiting adults are expected to stop at the duty free store and bring to the Island, the amount alcohol permitted by customs. This is 1 bottle of wine, one bottle of hard liquor or one case of beer per adult. Normally you will be asked to bring something specific. You are free to buy whatever you like if NOT asked to buy something specific. In either case please remember one very important thing:

THE DUTY FREE STORE IS LOCATED PAST THE ENTRANCE TO THE BRIDGE. DO NOT EXIT AT THE BRIDGE EXIT. GO PAST AND FOLLOW THE SIGNS
