Eleuthera, the island of freedom. There is so much truth to the name ... with its signature rolling hills, quiet seaside villages, beautiful and plentious beaches, quaint townships, historical sites, phenomenal natural attractions and friendly, easy-going people. Here the pace is a unique blend of relaxed, laid-back enjoyment of surroundings, good friends and family ties that go way, way back. Eleuthera’s one hundred and ten mile stretch of island is a beautiful and relaxing ride of about four hours of gorgeous sea views. The main Queen’s Highway runs from the northern tip to the south mainly along the western coastline. On the northern tip of Eleuthera you’ll find the islands of Harbour Island and Spanish Wells. Two historical townships that are quite self-sufficient in their own right.
 
Spanish Wells is inhabited mainly by descendants of Loyalists who came to the islands. Here you can rent a golf cart and spend a leisurely day exploring the island, as well as nearby Russell Island. The clean and pristine island, with its’ picket fences and pastel colored homes of old Loyalist architecture is like a breath of fresh air.
 
Harbour Island is said to have housed the first Bahamian government representatives. At one time in Eleuthera’s history there were more inhabitants in

Travelling south from Lower Bogue, the first natural attraction you will meet is the awesome Glass Window bridge. This narrow section of the island is virtually separated, but for a slither of rocky land, where the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic ocean literally meet. A one lane bridge connects the two sides and can be ‘scary’ and a little dangerous at times, when the ‘rage’ is on. This happens during spells of high tides and strong winds which cause the Atlantic ocean to wash gigantic waves over and under the bridge. It is a phenomenon of nature, which is fabulous to see and experience.

The Hatchet Bay Caves, south of Gregory Town are an attractive site with its’ stalactites and stalagmites. The Cliffs, which are situated just outside of James’ Cistern, travelling south are a must see. This rugged area of the island rises abruptly off of the Atlantic ocean.

The township of Governor’s Harbour is where the government offices are currently located, The adjoining Cupid’s Cay is said to be the landing site of the Eleutheran Adventurers and also, the original government administrative offices and courthouse was located there.

Another popular natural attraction is the Ocean Hole in Rock Sound, with its’ hungry, eager fish, which are quite fun to feed. So take along some bread! The Lighthouse beach at the southern end of the island is a fabulous way to spend a relaxing day in the sun.

Harbour Island than in New Providence. Bri’land is an island which is visited by the rich and famous from all over the globe and is well-known for having one of the top ten beaches in the world, the famous Pink Sand beach. The Pink Sand is lined with quaint, luxurious hotels, sought after by vacationers with the means to afford a stay at island resorts with the exquisite charm, comfortable accommodations and exceptional service that keep them coming back. Bri’land is also home to a growing number of ‘winter residents’ with second homes and some that extend their stay to all year ‘round. Harbour Island is a delightful mixture of elegance and downhome charm, from ‘down yonder’ to ‘up the track’, Bri’land is a fascinating place to be.

‘Cross the Land’, as Bri’landers would say, refers to the main island of Eleuthera, a true gem of gorgeous beaches and seaside towns. North of Lower Bogue is the Preacher’s Cave, where the Eleutheran Adventurers held services of thanksgiving and worship.
