Camana Bay is set to capture the magic throughout this holiday season. Featuring the town’s magnificent 39-foot Christmas tree in the heart of the Crescent and twinkling lights and sprinkles of holiday cheer throughout, the Town Centre décor will provide an enchanting backdrop to the season’s festivities. Camana Bay is host to a number of celebrations for all to enjoy, as well as shopping and dining, through to the end of the year. As we reach the end of another impacted year, the holidays are a welcome time for families to focus on the joy and hope of the season. With a strong focus on supporting local businesses, Camana Bay will give visitors a chance to shop for their loved ones on island, make memories and share festive experiences.
