Beware of pirates! :) Nassau was once known as the Republic of Pirates, and the infamous Blackbeard himself served as its judge. This place is steeped in history. If you haven't watched Black Sails, you're missing out!

I will check it out. My parents honeymooned here in the late 1950s, but I know nothing about the Bahamas.

What I know comes from watching the TV series. I can tell you that Nassau was a pirate haven and its islands were a wonderful hideout with shallow waters and were very close to the shipping route of the Spanish and Portuguese galleons (ships), full of gold.
