Old Fort Bay is a new and exciting beachfront development located in the western end of New Providence, just adjacent to Lyford Cay, about 10 miles from downtown Nassau. It has one of the finest beaches in New Providence and is particularly appealing to boaters, as most properties feature canal frontage. Natural flora and fauna have been preserved to create an eco-friendly backdrop to the opulent architecture from Venetian villas, Bahamian colonial estates and palatial beachfront homes.

The Old Fort itself is a private Old World-style restaurant, and clubhouse nestled under an ancient silk cotton tree and overlooking one of the most gorgeous stretches of beachfront in The Bahamas. The Old Fort building dates back to the 1700s, and its beautiful hand-painted murals and tiles, including Spanish azulejos, have been meticulously restored.

Dinner on the veranda overlooking Old Fort Bay is a celebration of island living in every way. Here you can watch the red ripples of sunset on the ocean, under the warmth of the silk cotton tree, whilst savouring world-class cuisine.
