Caribbean Coast
Set in the former home of a prolific local painter, this museum provides a window into what it was like to live in Bilwi in the good old days. There are black-and-white photos, old dugout canoes, terrific local handicrafts and an antique collection (the sewing machines are especially cool); dozens of Kain's paintings are also on display.
