The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort, Bahamas

A ribbon of white sand and azure sea defines the north shore of Paradise Island, known as one of the world’s most beautiful natural beaches. This idyllic hideaway extends 8 kilometres (5 miles) in length and just 1.6 kilometres (1 mile) in width.

Paradise Island is reached via two bridges from the Bahamas’ main island of New Providence – home to the vibrant city of Nassau. First settled by British colonists in the 1600s, Nassau today combines contemporary convenience and colonial charm.

Let Four Seasons arrange a horse-drawn carriage tour of old Nassau – travelling along Bay Street to admire the Georgian architecture and pastel-painted wooden shops. For a deeper glimpse into history, visit the Pompey Museum, or connect with today’s culture in the Junkanoo Museum and dozens of Bahamian art galleries. With duty-free shopping and casino gaming, Nassau and Paradise Island promise a full array of holiday diversions. Or, you may simply prefer to bask in the peaceful glamour of The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort, Bahamas.
