Beaches:

  • Lighthouse Beach:

    • This is often considered one of Eleuthera's most beautiful beaches. It's located at the southern tip of the island and features pink sands and clear blue waters.

    • Be prepared for a bit of an adventure to get there, as the roads can be rough.

  • Ten Bay Beach:

    • Known for its calm, shallow waters, making it perfect for swimming and relaxing.

    • The soft, golden sands and shady trees create a tranquil atmosphere.

    • Another beautiful stretch of pink sand beach, ideal for long walks and enjoying the serene environment.

  • Surfer's Beach:

    • A popular spot for surfing, especially when the conditions are right. Even if you're not a surfer, it's worth a visit to watch the waves.

  • Gaulding Cay Beach:

    • when the tide is low, you can walk out to Gaulding Cay. This is a very beautiful location.

Natural Attractions:

    • Eleuthera offers excellent opportunities for bonefishing, deep-sea fishing, and boat tours. We personally recommend Fishbone Tours in Savannah Sound (ask for Julias told him we sent you!) Fishbone Tours

  • Snorkeling and diving:

    • The island's coral reefs are home to a variety of marine life, making it a great place for underwater exploration. Some of the best coral reefs I have found right in front of our cottages!!
