Eleuthera is the site of the first successful European settlement in The Bahamas and has more than 100 miles of picturesque pink sand beaches and quaint New England-style fishing villages; and it is also a tropical Bohemia for artists.

It's settlements include (north to south) The Bluff, Upper and Lower Bogue, The Current, Gregory Town, Alice Town, James Cistern, Governor's Harbour, North and South Palmetto Point, Savannah Sound, Winding Bay, Tarpum Bay, Rock Sound, Greencastle, Deep Creek, Delancy Town, Waterford, Wemyss Bight, John Millars, Millar's and Bannerman Town. Airports with regularly scheduled flights are found in North Eleuthera, Governor's Harbour and Rock Sound.

Famed for the sweetness of its Pineapples, Eleuthera holds an annual Pineapple Festival in Gregory Town each June.

Visit Preacher's Cave where it is believed that Eleutherian's took shelter after exploring North Eleuthera. Another site of interest is the Cave at Hatchet Bay which is filled with stalagmites and stalactites. Rock Sound Ocean Hole is popular for feeding fish or climbing the cliffs for a dramatic view of both the Caribbean and Atlantic oceans. Surfer's Beach is popular for the obvious reasons. The Boiling Hole and The Hot Tubs just south of Whale's Point are popular attractions as are The Cliffs north of James Cistern. Excellent Bone Fishing can be had in many of the bays with a special favorite being Ten Bay.

The well to-do inhabitants of Windermere Island are often visited by the Royal Family. Windermere Island is just off the eastern coast of Eleuthera, south of Savannah Sound.

Harbour Island which is one of Eleuthera's Hot spots features 18th century New England style buildings or cottages/capes; restored in a Bahamian Brigadoon setting along a three-mile pink sand beach. The Harbour Island settlement of Dunmore Town was once the Bahamian summer capital and second only to Nassau in importance and population.

Spanish Wells is the village where crawfishing has enriched many. There is a small museum where the seafaring residents' rich heritage and culture can be reviewed. Windermere Island is popular with the rich, royal and classy set -- so much so that admittance is denied without an appointment. There is the "artsy" Tarpum Bay and world-class surfing at Gregory Town's Surfer's Beach. The Rock Sound area in the south is the up and coming area of commerce with franchises and business abounding.

Eleuthera is an island in the Bahamas, lying 50 miles (80 km) east of Nassau the capital of The Bahamas. The name "Eleuthera" is derived from the feminine form of the Greek word (eleutheros), which means "freedom". The topography of the island varies from wide rolling pink sand beaches to large outcrops of ancient coral reefs. The eastern side of the island faces the Atlantic Ocean while the western side faces the Great Bahama Bank, one of the two Bahama Banks. Eleuthera certainly the place you need to visit if you are looking for a vacation spot in the Caribbean.
