About Nassau
Why visit Nassau?
Nassau is the capital of the Bahamas, on the island of New Providence in the Atlantic southeast of Florida. Its resorts sit along Cable Beach to the west, in and around downtown, and on Paradise Island across the harbour, home to the Atlantis resort. Packages from Canada fly into Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS).
