Nassau is the capital of the Bahamas and the largest city in the archipelago. It was once a refuge for pirates and offers a landscape that blends colonial furnishings and traditional architecture. It is possible to admire the Queen's Staircase, built from a single block of limestone in the 18th century as a tribute to Queen Victoria's 65th anniversary of her reign, or climb to the top of Bennet Hill to visit Fort Fincastle. Alternatively, one can spend time at Blue Lagoon, enjoying the ivory sand and turquoise waters.
