Nassau - Paradise Island

 
Paradise Island is a long cay running parallel to the northern edge of New Providence Island which forms the harbor at Nassau. On one end of the island is the lighthouse which marks the entrance to the harbor. At the other end is a golf course. In between are several resorts and a series of mansions. The most prominent resort on the island is the Atlantis Hotel.

Several seagoing sightseeing boats leave from Paradise Island.

The former name of the island is Hog Island. The island was privately owned by A&P supermarket chain owner Huntington Hartford, until he developed it as a resort.
Tips: There is a toll of $2 on the bridges.
