Grand Bahama, The Bahamas

El Castillo Del Mar

Castillo Del Mar University

A house of craft, not a classroom. Castillo Del Mar University is the District's training order — immersive apprenticeships, internships, and trade instruction built around real work on a real place. Modeled on the most respected destination-training programs in the world, it places you inside the disciplines that raise the fortress, run the harbor, and carry the show. You won't study the District from the outside — you'll build it from within.

Bahamian-first. Built for this island.
