Sorry to tell you that you can't just work in the Bahamas either.
Incidental jobs are only available to Bahamians. Skilled workers can only be
hired if there is not an available local to take the job, but since
unemployment is so high, it's unlikely.

WOrk Permits are expensive, and are applied for by your employer for a
specific job. You cannot apply for a work permit while living in the bahamas.

You can stay in the bahamas for up to 3 months as a tourist, but you must show
that you have enough funds $$$ available to sustain you if you are looking to
stay any longer.

Most caribbean countries have similar policies.
