It's capital as a sun resort (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nassau

'it's capital' is the definition.
(capital of the Bahamas)

'as a sun resort' is the wordplay.
'resort' indicates anagramming the letters (re-sort the letters).
'as'+'a'+'sun'='asasun'
'asasun' anagrammed gives 'NASSAU'.

(Other definitions for nassau that I've seen before include "Dublin street in the Bahamas?" , "Bahamas cap." , "Capital of the Bahamas" , "city" , "Port of the Bahamas" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
