Is Nassau in the Bermuda Triangle? No—Here's Where It Actually Is

Clear Answer: No

Nassau (capital of The Bahamas) is not in the Bermuda Triangle.

Locations

• Nassau: New Providence Island, Bahamas — ~180 miles (290 km) southeast of Miami; on the edge of the Lucayan Archipelago.
• Bermuda Triangle: Loosely defined region bounded by Miami (FL), Bermuda, and Puerto Rico. Its western edge is near Florida's coast; eastern edge is Bermuda (600+ miles east of Nassau).

Why the Confusion?

Both are in the western North Atlantic, and the Bahamas archipelago spans a large area. But Nassau lies well south of the Triangle's typical southern vertex (Puerto Rico) and west of its eastern vertex (Bermuda).

The Bahamas has its own maritime mysteries (e.g., "Bahamas Triangle" / "Tongue of the Ocean"), but Nassau is not in the classic Bermuda Triangle.
