When you land
Things to do in Eleuthera
Eleuthera is a long, thin island stretching over 100 miles from north to south, with the Atlantic on one side and the calm Bight of Eleuthera on the other, often within sight of each other. Its history begins with the Eleutheran Adventurers, Puritan settlers from Bermuda who arrived in the 1640s, and Governor’s Harbour, in central Eleuthera, is among its oldest towns. Victorian-era houses climb the hill above the harbor, and the town serves as the island’s administrative center, with the Haynes Library, small inns and an easygoing Friday-night fish fry.
