Metroji clue #34

Nassau in five emoji

Bahamas

A cruise port on a small island, with the country's other seven hundred islands mostly empty. The clue mixes what is on the postcards with what is actually eaten.

What each emoji refers to

The swimming pigs live on an uninhabited cay in the Exumas, about a hundred kilometres away.
Cruise arrivals outnumber residents many times over across a year.
Conch is the national food, eaten raw in salad, and the stocks have been fished down hard enough to worry the fisheries department.
Rum has been distilled in the islands since the plantation era, and the cocktails came later for the tourists.
Paradise Island is joined to Nassau by two bridges and holds most of the resort beds.
