colony, you can find the hilly roads passing by small homes with brightly
colored shutters and goats roaming the streets.
Gaulding's Cay
Small offshore island, located just north of Tarpum Bay, is a snorkelers
wonderland, covered with a virtual carpet of brilliant sun anemones.
Tiny Harbor Island is located just off the north coast of Eleuthera. Often refered to as the 'Nantucket of the Caribbean' and the prettiest of the Out Islands. Visitors greatly admire its three miles of powdery pink sand beaches and coral. Also noteworthy are the pastel-color clapboard houses set amid narrow lanes, quaint shops and tropical flowers.
Offshore is a long coral reef, protecting the beach and an excellent destination for snorkeling / diving.

The romantic village of Spanish Wells is located on St. George's Cay, off the northern tip of Eleuthera. It was used as a safe harbour by the Spanish during the 17th century while transferring their riches from the New World to the Old. Today it looks like a New England fishing village.
Located next to Eleuthera is Windermere Island, site of vacation homes of the rich and famous, including members of the British royal family.
