Anyone know of a place in Naasua where you can rent a metal detector?

Take yours with you. I did in April and had no problems. Oh, and I took a very cheap Walmart Bounty Hunter (all I had then) and found alot of coins for about 4 hours total hunting (see my pic). I posted it here afterwards.

The coins in some cases were laying on top of the sand. I didn't see a single other MD there.

I've since caught the fever and upgraded to a nicer machine. I'd love to go back and try it now.

Post us when you get back.

No problem going thru Bahama Customs? And what beach did you hunt?

Not at all. I broke it down an padded/checked it with my big bag. They looked at it (I had an inspection notice) but no worries. I stayed at the Wyndham on Cable beach. The coins were all over. I had $75 detector and found all those coins in just four hours over 3 hunts; all in dry sand. Coins were everywhere.

Oh, and I called first. Coin hunting is allowed. Relic hunting needs permission. Beach hunting is always considered coin hunting. I also talked to local cops and the hotel manager. Both they said, 'no worries.'
