Your flight to Nassau introduces you to The Bahamas’ laid-back capital on New Providence Island, settled by the English in the 17th century. Take in colonial heritage sites of downtown Nassau and the moat, dungeons and views from Fort Charlotte.
Step back in time at Pirates of Nassau to discover the true story of their ways and hear about Nassau’s early days at the Pompey Museum of Slavery and Emancipation. Immerse yourself in the bars and clubs of Nassau at historic neighbourhood Over the Hill.
For panoramic views of Nassau go across the cay to Coral Island or walk amongst rare and exotic palms at The Retreat, Nassau’s National Park. Or enjoy Western Esplanade and beaches around Nassau and Paradise Island’s exciting nightlife.
Bahamians love their conch (mollusc): raw, fried, steamed or in soups, salads and stews. Or try the Nassau favourite of boiled fish with grits (ground corn) and spicy rice and peas. Drinks include refreshing coconut water with gin and sweet milk and wheaty kalik beer.
