It’s Poinciana season in the Bahamas, and these iconic trees are currently putting on a spectacular show. Known for their fiery red and orange blossoms, the Royal Poinciana blooms from late spring into early summer, resulting in a fleeting yet unforgettable display of natural beauty.

Their wide-spreading branches and flamboyant flowers are a hallmark of the season, offering shade and color in equal measure.

This year’s bloom is particularly stunning, and it's a gentle reminder to pause and appreciate the natural wonders that surround us. Whether you’re walking through your neighborhood, cruising along scenic roads, or simply relaxing in your backyard, look up and soak in the bold hues of the Poinciana.

Be sure to enjoy them while you can — the brilliant blooms will begin to fade soon and won’t return in their full glory until 2026.
