If you look up the best beaches and most secluded island Eleuthera pops up! Eleuthera is known as a stunning gem, secluded beaches, diverse natural attractions with Bahamian flare!


Here's a breakdown of some of the best things to do when visiting the island:



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.

  • French Leave Beach:

    • 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:

  • Glass Window Bridge:

    • A must-see landmark where the dark blue Atlantic Ocean meets the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. The contrast is breathtaking.

  • Queen's Baths:

    • Natural tide pools carved into the rocks, providing a unique place to swim and explore.

  • Preacher's Cave:

    • A historic cave that served as a refuge for the Eleutheran Adventurers, the island's first settlers.

  • Sapphire Blue Hole:

    • A very beautiful inland blue hole, that is a popular location for swimming.

  • Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve:

    • A beautiful preserve showcasing the diverse plant life of the Bahamas, including medicinal plants.

Other Activities:

  • Exploring the settlements:

    • Visit towns like Governor's Harbour, Spanish Wells, and Harbour Island to experience the local culture and charm.

  • Fishing and boating:

    • 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!!


When planning your trip, consider renting a car to explore the island's many hidden gems. Eleuthera offers a relaxing and authentic Bahamian experience, away from the crowds of more tourist-heavy destinations.

Pour découvrir une ville, je trouve intéressant de ne pas se limiter aux guides touristiques traditionnels. Les contenus locaux peuvent parfois apporter des idées différentes. Dans le cas d’Agadir, Agadirmoments.com peut compléter les informations que l’on trouve déjà ailleurs.
