- Some unusual island names are Ragged Island, Crooked Island, Rum Cay, Conception Island, Exuma, Big Farmer's Cay and Great Sayle Cay.

- Surprisingly one of Nassau's most visited attraction is a staircase! Albeit one that was named to honor 65 years of Queen Victoria's reign. Carved by slaves out of solid limestone in the late 18th century, the walk down the 65 steps of Queen's Staircase takes you past a peaceful waterfall and to a small market and an un-missable photo opportunity.
