- History of Old Fort Bay
Old Fort Bay Club initially began as a fort constructed by the British to keep order in the area. In the 1700s, the Crown concerned itself with protecting the Bahamas from pirates and privateers, and so the fort was developed.

During the 1800s the fort was used as a plantation house for all the sisal growing in the area, and in the 1920s the building fell into the hands of James Cox Brady, who won it in a card game. After Brady's death, his widow remarried, and she and her husband filled the property with treasures they collected from their world travels. After her death, the Old Fort was left empty until 2002.

After decades of sitting empty, Old Fort Bay Club was restored to its original glory, with the preservation of historic features. The surrounding gardens and the silk cotton tree outside the club were also revitalized, bringing a new sense of life back to the property.

Members at Old Fort Bay Club enjoy delicious lunch and dinner menus at the restaurant, which is recognized island-wide for its delicious and modern fare, fresh produce, and wonderful service with a staff who will remember not only your name, but also your drink order.

The club features a complete fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment, as well as satellite radio and flat screen TVs to entertain you while you work out. Families can enjoy time together at the swimming pool, and special events are held at the club's Pavilion, which has a rooftop garden offering stunning views.
