Historical Forts#1 - Fort Fincastle


Take a tour of Fort Charlotte, Nassau Bahamas. This is my favorite fort as it holds a lot of memories and has a spectacular view of the popular Arawak Cay harbor and Paradise Island. 

Fort Charlotte is the largest and most interesting of the three forts found in Nassau. Built in 1789 by Lord Dunmore and named in honor of the wife of King George III.This fort has never fired a shot in Battle. It includes a water-less moat, draw-bridge, ramparts and dungeons. Fort Charlotte commands a fine view of Nassau Harbor.
