It\u2019s has a slow pace, and aside from perhaps petty crimes involve thefts, most visitors to the area report feeling very safe and confident exploring. You may spend much of your trip not even seeing other people in Eleuthera at all, depending on where you\u2019re staying.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Beaches\"><\/span>The Beaches<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.departures.com\/travel\/things-to-do-harbour-island-bahamas\">If you\u2019re someone who loves beautiful beaches<\/a>, then Eleuthera might be the right spot for you. They have some of the most perfect white and pink sand beaches anywhere on the planet.<\/p>\n<p>The water is crystal clear and perfect for snorkeling. A lot of people feel Eleuthera is somewhat of a travel secret. It\u2019s located around 118 km from Nassau, but it can feel worlds away. Back to those beautiful beaches\u2014there\u2019s a high likelihood you\u2019ll have them to yourself.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bahamas.com\/islands\/eleuthera-harbour-island\">Eleuthera is divided into three main areas<\/a>. There\u2019s North Eleuthera with Spanish Wells and the high-end luxury Harbour Island. There\u2019s also Central Eleuthera, where the Governor\u2019s Harbour town is.<\/p>\n<p>Then, there\u2019s remote South Eleuthera with Rock Sound and beaches like Lighthouse Beach.<\/p>\n<p>French Leave is also known as Club Med Beach, located in Governor\u2019s Harbour. This beach has white sand, and it\u2019s easily accessible, making it a favorite among tourists. Lighthouse Beach is perhaps the prettiest beach in all of the Bahamas. There\u2019s also Rainbow Beach, with shallow water that\u2019s good for families.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_You_Get_There\"><\/span>How Do You Get There?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23179\" src=\"https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset.jpg\" alt=\"Eleuthera_Sunset\" width=\"800\" height=\"491\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset.jpg 800w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset-768x471.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset-696x427.jpg 696w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Eleuthera_Sunset-684x420.jpg 684w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>The peak season for the Bahamas is December to April, so you may pay more. Even so, Eleuthera is more budget-friendly than a lot of travel destinations, even during that time.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to travel outside of peak season, plan to go from May to August. You can find great deals.<\/p>\n<p>From September to October, you may want to avoid it because of hurricane season. A lot of the places for tourists close during this time anyway.<\/p>\n<p>You can fly into Nassau and then take a short flight to Eleuthera. You can also fly from major airports into Eleuthera. There\u2019s North Eleuthera International Airport and Governor\u2019s Harbour Airport. There\u2019s also Rock Sound International Airport.<\/p>\n<p>To take a boat, there are ferries from Nassau to Governor\u2019s Harbour, but those trips take anywhere from five to eight hours.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Getting_Around\"><\/span>Getting Around<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23180\" src=\"https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera.jpg\" alt=\"Cocos nucifera Eleuthera\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera.jpg 800w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera-696x462.jpg 696w, https:\/\/tripandtravelblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Cocos-nucifera-Eleuthera-633x420.jpg 633w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>You should absolutely plan to rent a car in Eleuthera. Otherwise, you will spend a fortune hiring a driver.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s one major road there called the Meridian Highway, and there\u2019s not usually much traffic.<\/p>\n<p>When renting a car in Eleuthera you usually just arrange to do so from a local person. They\u2019ll bring the car to the airport for you.<\/p>\n<p>Consider a 4\u00d74, because a lot of the roads aren\u2019t paved.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Do\"><\/span>What to Do<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to cook during your trip, think about visiting Island Farm. Island Farm grows fresh produce right behind the hop, and they also have things like homemade jams and jellies.<\/p>\n<p>Governor\u2019s Harbour is the largest town on Eleuthera, and you\u2019ll see beautiful historic homes located on the harbor. It\u2019ll take you back in time.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s Glass Window Bridge, which is a strip of rock that serves as a division between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Stay\"><\/span>Where to Stay<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.travelmag.com\/articles\/resorts-in-eleuthera\/\">There aren\u2019t a lot of big resorts in Eleuthera<\/a>, although there are a few. They tend to be fairly expensive but also convenient.<\/p>\n<p>If you want a different experience, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.harpersbazaar.com\/culture\/travel-dining\/a14754507\/just-back-from-eleuthera-bahamas\/\">consider renting a villa<\/a>. There are villas in all price ranges, and some of them are pretty limited in their amenities, but the views are a standout.<\/p>\n<p>When you rent a villa it gives you the option to buy fresh fish and other items and cook at home rather than going to a restaurant. It\u2019ll also encourage you to explore the island more instead of only staying onsite at your resort.<\/p>\n<div class=\"hentry\" style=\"visibility:hidden;\"><span class=\"entry-title\">What to Know About Traveling to Eleuthera<\/span> was last modified: <span class=\"updated\"> December 20th, 2020<\/span> by <span class=\"author vcard\"><span class=\"fn\">Travel Blogger<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
