High atop a hillside overlooking the harbor of Nassau stands Fort Charlotte, the largest fort in the city. Built in the late 18th century during the British colonial era, this historic site was constructed in preparation for a battle that never materialized. Today, visitors can explore its hidden underground passages, a dry moat, and remote dungeons. The fort also houses cannons that have never been fired in combat. From its vantage point, the fort offers picturesque views of Paradise Island, Nassau, and the bustling harbor below.
