Looking for a Golf Cart Rental in Nassau Bahamas?
If you’ve been searching for a golf cart rental in Nassau Bahamas, you’re on the right track — but we have something even better. Bowcar Bahamas offers a 4×4 open-sided 6-seater buggy rental that gives you everything a golf cart would, and a whole lot more. Here’s why thousands of visitors choose the Bowcar buggy over a traditional golf cart rental in Nassau Bahamas every year.
What’s the Difference Between a Golf Cart and a Buggy?
A golf cart is small, slow, and built for smooth surfaces. Nassau’s roads — especially if you want to explore beyond the tourist areas — need something more capable.
The Bowcar buggy is a 4×4 open-sided 6-seater vehicle built for the island. It’s automatic transmission, road legal, and gives you the freedom to go anywhere on New Providence Island. Think of it as a golf cart’s bigger, more adventurous cousin.
Here’s how they compare:
- Seating: Golf cart (2-4 people) vs Bowcar Buggy (up to 6 people)
- Speed: Golf cart (slow, limited) vs Bowcar Buggy (road legal, full island access)
- Terrain: Golf cart (smooth surfaces only) vs Bowcar Buggy (4×4, handles any road)
- Range: Golf cart (limited area) vs Bowcar Buggy (entire New Providence Island)
- Pickup: Golf cart (you go to them) vs Bowcar Buggy (free cruise port pickup included)
