Nassau

A Perfect Weekend Destination

Just off the coast of Florida in the Atlantic Ocean, the Bahamas are a series of islands that stretch out into an archipelago. The capital city of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas is Nassau.

With a population of just short of 250,000 people, it is home to almost 70% of the population of the entire Bahamas island groups.

Because of its close distance to the US, there are flights that operate frequently to cities there as well as other spots in the Caribbean and Europe from the Lynden Pindling International Airport.
