Nassau Attractions<\/h2>\n

Atlantis<\/strong>
\nIt’s as if an alien spaceship abducted a billion-dollar Las Vegas resort, then parked it in The Bahamas. This multi-story, salmon-colored seaside resort includes Aquaventure, a 141-acre waterscape with a thrilling Mayan Temple water slide, a mile-long river ride with high-intensity rapids, wave surges, special effects, and Climbers Rush (12 climbing surfaces). Dolphin Cay lets you experience the shallow water antics, speed, and agility of dolphins in an extraordinary, 14-acre dolphin habitat. Atlantis Pools & Lazy River Ride satisfy every taste, from the formal splendor of the Royal Baths Pool to the relaxed atmosphere and fun of the River Pool to the expansive Kids Pools. Enjoy miles of pristine Beach stretching in both directions from the resort, also Paradise Lagoon offers swimming, sunbathing, and a variety of water sports. Last but not least, there’s a world-class casino with enough games, artwork, and eye candy to satisfy a Las Vegas ex-patriot.

Prince George Wharf<\/strong>
\nThis is the largest cruise port in the Caribbean, adjacent to downtown Nassau. When you disembark from a cruise ship, you will notice a large straw market for gifts sold by cheerful merchants. What a wonderful way to support the local economy and pick a colorful hat and other gifts to remind you of a great time in the Bahamas. You can pick up brochures and maps from the Ministry of Tourism Information Centre in Rawson Square.<\/p>\n

Parliament Square<\/strong>
\nThe traditional centers of the Government of The Bahamas are located in the heart of downtown on Bay Street. As a former British colony, The Bahamas continues the tradition of a parliamentary government composed of a Senate, House of Assembly, Prime Minister, Supreme Court, and Court of Appeals. Changing of the Guard ceremony, held every two weeks, also continues the eye-catching British tradition.
