Eleuthera

Beach   Coastal   Beaches  

Eleuthera is a slender, elongated island in the Bahamas, known for its magnificent pink sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and laid-back atmosphere. It is part of a chain of islands called the Out Islands or Family Islands and is famous for its colonial villages, pineapple fields, and exceptional natural beauty. The island stretches over 100 miles but is just a couple of miles wide at its widest point, creating a unique geographical feature that offers both Atlantic and Caribbean ocean experiences. Eleuthera is a haven for those seeking a serene escape, with its small population and low-key tourism compared to other Bahamian islands. Visitors can explore the island's rich history in settlements like Governor's Harbour, which is the island's administrative center and one of the oldest settlements in the Bahamas. The island's natural attractions include the Glass Window Bridge, where the dark blue Atlantic meets the aquamarine Caribbean Sea, and the Queen's Bath, natural pools carved out of the rock by the sea. Eleuthera is also known for its friendly locals, fresh seafood, and outdoor activities such as diving, snorkeling, fishing, and boating. Despite its quiet charm, the island offers a range of accommodations from luxury resorts to cozy inns, catering to a variety of travelers.

Cost of Living

The cost of living in Eleuthera is high due to its remote location and reliance on imported goods, which can make everyday items and services more expensive than on larger islands or in more urban areas.

Weather

The weather in Eleuthera is tropical with warm temperatures year-round and more rainfall in the summer and early fall.
