About Nassau
Nassau is the capital of the Bahamas, a pastel-painted harbour town on New Providence Island with old forts, a pirate past and a straw market.
Nassau lies on the north coast of New Providence, facing Paradise Island across a sheltered harbour. In the early 1700s the settlement was a haven for pirates, a period retold in its museums, and it later became the seat of British colonial government. Pink-and-white government buildings stand around Parliament Square, and Bay Street, the main shopping street, runs beside the Straw Market where baskets and hats are woven and sold.
Top-ranked sights in Nassau: Rose Island, Queen's Staircase, Government House.
