This Cocktail Fundraiser for Seahorse National Park will bring together community, conservation, and celebration. Join us for a vibrant evening of cocktails, live music, and local connection — all to support one of The Bahamas’ most extraordinary natural areas.
Seahorse National Park is The Bahamas’ newest national park — declared in September 2023 to protect the globally significant ecosystems of Sweetings Pond and Hatchet Bay Cave. This cocktail fundraiser is your opportunity to become a founding supporter of the park and help us shape its future. Come enjoy live music, an open bar, delicious hors d’oeuvres, and a silent auction, all in support of conservation. Guests will also hear exclusive updates on the park and our plans for transforming this extraordinary landscape into a world-class model of sustainable tourism and conservation.
Bid on one-of-a-kind items in our exclusive silent auction — from luxury getaways and handcrafted art to seahorse-inspired jewelry and unforgettable island experiences. Every item has been donated by Bahamian artists, businesses, and community members in support of Seahorse National Park. Each winning bid helps advance conservation and community impact in Eleuthera.
Seahorse National Park protects the globally significant ecosystems of Sweetings Pond and Hatchet Bay Cave on Eleuthera. Sweetings Pond is a unique landlocked saltwater body, home to the world’s densest known population of seahorses, while Hatchet Bay Cave is one of the longest dry cave systems in The Bahamas. Declared in 2023, this 548-acre park is a haven for biodiversity and a beacon for sustainable development. With your support, Seahorse National Park will become a model for conservation, and science-based ecotourism.
