Offshore VPS in The Bahamas: what you actually get

"Offshore VPS" is a phrase that covers everything from serious jurisdictional planning to hosts that will take anyone's money. Here is precisely what ours is, what it costs, and the rules it runs under — so you can decide quickly whether it fits.

What offshore means here — and what it does not

An offshore VPS at Secure Shore is a Linux virtual server running in our own facility in Nassau, addressed from Bahamian-domiciled IP space, operated by a Bahamian company with no US affiliations. It is not a "bulletproof" host: lawful use, know-your-client checks and an Acceptable Use Policy apply.

That distinction is the whole point. The value of a Bahamian server is that your infrastructure lives under one clearly identified, regulated legal system, outside US and EU reach. A provider that ignores its own law offers no such thing — its customers are one enforcement action away from losing everything at once. We serve reputable, well-regulated clients, and we ask who you are before revealing server credentials.

If you need somewhere that asks no questions, this is the wrong page. If you need infrastructure that will still be there in five years, under a jurisdiction you chose on purpose, keep reading.

Plans and prices

Four fixed plans, priced flat per month. A one-off setup fee applies on first provisioning. No egress charges, no per-request billing.

Need something in between, or bigger? The custom builder on the main site lets you pick each component and prices it live: 1 to 16 cores, 1 to 64 GB of RAM, 30 GB to 1 TB of storage on SAS, SSD or NVMe, with managed backup as an option. Custom builds are provisioned by our team after payment.

Operating systems: Ubuntu LTS, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux and Kali. Linux only — we do not offer Windows virtual servers.

The network is the part that makes it offshore

Every server is announced from Bahamian-domiciled IP space over BGP, across independent local carriers. Traffic to and from your server does not need to transit the United States.

This is the detail most "offshore" hosts skip: a server in the Caribbean addressed from a US-registered IP block, routed through Miami by default, is offshore in geography only. Ours is domiciled here at the address level as well as the rack level.

If you need more than the addresses that come with the server, dedicated IP blocks are available as a monthly add-on: a /29 block (5 usable IPs) with 20 Mbps starts at US$700 per month, with 50 Mbps and 100 Mbps tiers above it, and a /27 block (30 usable IPs) for larger deployments. All BGP-announced with redundant carrier connectivity.

Who it is for, and who it is not

A good fit: businesses handling regulated, privileged or commercially sensitive data that must sit under a non-US, non-EU jurisdiction; teams that want a Bahamian-domiciled presence for legal or contractual reasons; anyone who has been burned by a cloud bill with more line items than servers.

A poor fit: latency-critical consumer applications — Nassau is about 180 miles from Miami, workable for most business workloads but not a CDN edge; architectures that depend on a hyperscaler's managed-service catalogue; and anything the Acceptable Use Policy would not permit.

Latency, honestly. Round-trips to the US East Coast are short; to Europe and Latin America they are what geography dictates. If milliseconds decide your case, test with your own traffic before committing — we would rather you find out on a free account than on an invoice.

How provisioning works

  1. Create an account on the main site. The free storage tier needs no card, so you can look around first.
  2. Pick a fixed plan or build a custom server. Payment is by PayPal.
  3. Accept the Acceptable Use Policy — a one-time step before credentials are revealed.
  4. Fixed plans are provisioned automatically; custom builds are set up by our team after payment, and you are notified when the server is ready.
  5. Your root credentials are shown in your account. Support is by phone and email, from Nassau, in your time zone or close to it.

Cancellation follows the published policy: virtual servers on monthly or quarterly plans can cancel at any time within the first 30 days; after that, eight days' notice before the next billing term.

Common questions

Is this an anonymous or "no questions asked" host?

No. Secure Shore serves reputable, well-regulated clients and may request identification, business registration and intended-use information under its Acceptable Use Policy. That policy is also what protects every other client on the platform.

Do I get a Bahamian IP address?

Yes. Servers are addressed from Bahamian-domiciled IP space, BGP-announced across independent local carriers. Additional /29 and /27 blocks are available as a monthly add-on.

Can I run Windows?

No. Virtual servers are Linux only: Ubuntu LTS, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux and Kali. Dedicated bare-metal servers are also available if you need full control of the machine.

Is there a bandwidth or egress charge?

Pricing is a flat monthly figure per plan, plus a one-off setup fee. Getting your data out does not generate a bill. Dedicated IP blocks come with their own bandwidth allocation.

What about US or EU legal requests?

Secure Shore Limited is a Bahamian company with no US parent, subsidiary, branch or affiliations. That places the provider itself outside US personal jurisdiction, which is the test that matters under the CLOUD Act. No jurisdiction is a legal force field — Bahamian law applies, and lawful process here is honoured — but you have chosen which legal system you are exposed to, rather than inheriting one by default.
