Freeport's main commercial district is centred on The Mall , located between Ranfurly Circus - named for a British royal governor who supported the city's development in the 1950s - and Churchill Square , about ten blocks north. Surrounding the city centre, The Mall is bound on one side by West Mall Drive, and on the other by East Mall Drive , where most of the hotels and restaurants are located. Tourist activity is focused on the south end of East Mall Drive , around Ranfurly Circus and the International Bazaar.

East from Ranfurly Circus on Sunrise Highway, and south on Seahorse Road, Port Lucaya and the beachfront hotels of Lucaya comprise a resort area with a more cheerful atmosphere than Freeport's, with carefully tended lawns and shrubbery, and tidy, candy-coloured shops and houses. A seaside suburb first developed in the 1960s, Lucaya is dominated by the brand-new and massive Our Lucaya Beach and Golf Resort , fronting Lucayan Beach , with two golf courses. Across the street from Our Lucaya is Port Lucaya Marketplace , a busy, colourful tourist market overlooking the boats at Port Lucaya Marina , with shops selling clothing, jewellery, perfume, crystal and china, open-air stalls displaying straw work and other souvenirs, and several lively restaurants and bars packed with vacationers.
