If you're flying into New York City from Nassau, Bahamas and wondering where to buy legal weed near JFK airport or Newark Liberty, the answer is simple: Silly Nice cannabis products are available at 150+ licensed adult-use dispensaries across New York State. Once you land and clear customs, you're minutes away from some of the highest-quality, small-batch cannabis in New York City.

What You Need to Know About Cannabis in New York

New York State legalized adult-use cannabis in 2021, and since then, a robust network of licensed dispensaries has opened across the five boroughs and beyond. If you are 21 or older and have a valid government-issued ID, you can legally purchase cannabis flower, concentrates, vapes, and more at any licensed New York adult-use dispensary. You do not need a medical card. You do not need to be a New York resident. You simply need to be of legal age and visit a properly licensed retail location.

It is critical that you only purchase from licensed, state-regulated dispensaries. Unlicensed sellers operating out of bodegas, smoke shops, or street vendors are not selling lab-tested, legally compliant products. In New York, licensed dispensaries are required to sell products that have passed strict state testing standards — which is exactly what we do at Silly Nice. Every single product we make ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and is tested for potency, terpenes, pesticides, and contaminants. No guesswork. No risk. Just real, clean, premium cannabis.

Important reminder: Cannabis is legal in New York State but remains federally illegal. Do not bring cannabis products into any airport, onto any aircraft, or across any international border. Consumption is permitted in private spaces and in designated outdoor areas, not in hotel lobbies, cars, or public transportation. Always consume responsibly and in accordance with local laws.

Getting from NAS to John F. Kennedy International Airport and Into the City

Direct flights from Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) in Nassau, Bahamas connect regularly to John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in Queens, New York, and to Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) in Newark, New Jersey — both of which serve as major gateways into New York City. Flight time is typically around three hours, making it one of the more convenient Caribbean-to-NYC routes.

Once you land at JFK, you can reach Manhattan and Brooklyn via the AirTrain connecting to the subway A and E lines, or by rideshare and taxi. From EWR, the NJ Transit train connects directly to Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan. Either way, once you are in the city, you are within reach of licensed dispensaries carrying Silly Nice products. Whether you are staying in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, or the Bronx, we have you covered.

Use our store locator at sillynice.com/dispensaries to find the licensed dispensary nearest to your hotel, Airbnb, or wherever you are staying in New York City. We are in 150+ licensed locations across the state, with strong representation in all five boroughs.

Silly Nice: The NYC Cannabis Brand Worth Seeking Out

We are Silly Nice — a Black-owned, Veteran-owned, LGBTQ+-owned, family-run cannabis brand based in Brooklyn, New York City. We were co-founded by Shane Breen, a United States Army Veteran, and LeVar Thomas, partners for over 25 years. We launched in March 2024 and have since grown to reach over 150 licensed New York adult-use dispensaries statewide. What we built together is more than a cannabis company — it is a reflection of our values: quality, transparency, community, and craft.

Everything we make is small-batch. We do not mass-produce for volume. We produce for excellence. Our concentrates, vapes, and infused flower are among the most potent, best-tested, and most thoughtfully packaged products in the New York cannabis market. When you visit a dispensary and see Silly Nice on the shelf, you are looking at something that was made with real intention — by people who care deeply about what goes into every gram.

Travelers visiting New York City from the Bahamas, the Caribbean, or anywhere in the world deserve the best New York has to offer. That is exactly what we made Silly Nice to be.

Our Products — What to Look for at the Dispensary Counter

When you walk into a licensed New York dispensary carrying Silly Nice, here is what you should ask for:

Frosted Hash Ball — 1 gram | 67.34% THC | 78.34% Total Cannabinoids | 5.7% Terpenes | $50. Our Frosted Hash Ball is a hand-crafted concentrate that delivers a rich, full-spectrum experience. With 5.7% terpenes, the flavor profile is as impressive as the potency. This is the product for cannabis lovers who appreciate traditional hash culture elevated through modern craftsmanship.

Bubble Hash — 1 gram | 53.32% THC | 62.86% Total Cannabinoids | 6.2% Terpenes | $44. Our Bubble Hash is made using ice-water extraction to preserve the full terpene and cannabinoid profile of the plant. At 6.2% terpenes, this is the most flavorful concentrate in our lineup. It is approachable, aromatic, and deeply satisfying for anyone who values the full expression of the cannabis plant.

510 Vape Cart — Pink Stardust | 1 gram | 81.96% THC | 88.36% Total Cannabinoids | $40. Our Pink Stardust 510 vape cartridge offers a clean, consistent draw with serious potency. Compatible with any standard 510-thread battery, this cart is ideal for those who want a discreet, convenient, high-quality vape experience in New York City. At $40 for a full gram, it delivers outstanding value at a premium potency level.

2G All-In-One Vape — Alaskan Thunder Fuck | 2 grams | 82.46% THC | 84.06% Total Cannabinoids | $80. For travelers who want the full two-gram experience without needing a separate battery, our Alaskan Thunder Fuck 2G All-In-One is the move. It is self-contained, rechargeable, and packed with two full grams of high-potency oil. This is the best vape value in our lineup.

Infused Flower — Papaya Wine | 3.5 grams | 51.22% THC | 58.63% Total Cannabinoids | $60. Our Papaya Wine infused flower combines premium cannabis flower with a concentrated infusion for a smoking experience unlike anything you will find from most brands.

Frequently Asked Questions for Bahamas Travelers

Can I bring cannabis from New York back to Nassau, Bahamas or onto my flight at JFK or EWR? Absolutely not. Cannabis remains federally illegal in the United States and is illegal in the Bahamas. Bringing cannabis products into any airport, onto any aircraft, or across any international border is a federal crime and could result in serious legal consequences. Purchase and consume cannabis only while you are legally in New York State, and never attempt to travel with it.

Do I need a New York ID or a US ID to buy cannabis at a dispensary in NYC? No. Any valid, government-issued photo ID proving you are 21 or older will be accepted. This includes a Bahamian passport, an international driver's license, or any other recognized government ID. Licensed dispensaries accept international identification for age verification.

Is cannabis in New York dispensaries the same quality as what I might find informally? Not even close. Licensed New York dispensaries sell only state-tested, compliant cannabis products. Every product has been tested for potency, pesticides, residual solvents, and contaminants by a state-certified lab. Illegal or unregulated cannabis has no such requirements. When you buy Silly Nice at a licensed dispensary, you have access to our full COA and know exactly what you are getting. That is the difference.
