Many Companies/Organizations/Communities in New Providence, Bahamas, such as Old Fort Bay, Albany, and Sandals Resort, to name a few, have barred off beaches by putting gates, or sneakily placed rocks around the beach so that only residents, members, or people who pay can access the beach, even though it is ILLEGAL to do this, but they get away with it anyway. The people of The Bahamas should be able to use any beach they want without having to pay to become part of a Club or become a resident. No matter how much money you have, you should be able to experience the beach just like someone who is wealthier.
