Do nothing. Experience everything.
There's a great paradigm in being
close to everything but obliged to do nothing.
Sky Beach Club is located near Governor’s Harbour in the
heart of Eleuthera. The club's central location makes it easy
to explore every possibility the island has to offer, or do
absolutely nothing at all.
Beachcombing
Ranked as one of the world's top 10 beach destinations and one
of the 5 best new places to travel, Eleuthera's stunning pink
and white sand beaches are the perfect place for shelling, taking
a long walk or just enjoying a day in the sun.
Bone Fishing
Ten Bay Beach in Savannah Sound is one of Eleuthera's most popular
beaches. With soft white sand and low tides, it's an ideal spot
to be barefoot and scouting for tailing bonefish. And that's
just one of MANY locations. If you love saltwater fly fishing,
Eleuthera will soon become your Mecca. Our Ultimate Concierge
team will be happy to make arrangements for you with the best
local guides and charters.
Deep Sea Sport Fishing
If you are feeling adventurous, Eleuthera is located just minutes
away from some of the best deep sea and sport fishing the Bahamas
has to offer. With the deep Atlantic waters close to the island
you are at good odds of reeling in a dolphin, marlin, tuna or
wahoo....just to name a few. There are many experienced charters
that can be arranged for half or full day trips.
Sightseeing
Take in the local scenery with a wide selection of day trips
certain to intrigue and entertain. From quaint costal villages,
to breathtaking natural wonders, to landmarks steeped in history—whatever
your interest, we'll get you there.
Snorkeling and Diving
Ship wrecks, sunken freighters, even train wrecks? It all adds
up to some of the best snorkeling and scuba adventures in the
world. Devil's Backbone, Harbour Island, the Current Cut—a
fast and furious drift dive—there are so many wonders
to explore. Diving and snorkeling equipment can be rented on
the island and guides are available.
Wining and Dining
From elegant, romantic seaside dinners to appetizers, tropical
drinks and live jam sessions, there is a dining experience to
suit every palate, every mood. From continental cuisine, to
eclectic Bahamian favorites (the big three being grouper, lobster
and conch). One can enjoy intimate settings to local favorites,
or simply stay put and enjoy the fine dining and world class
service of Sky Beach Club’s restaurant and personal chefs.
Lighthouse Beach
As the name implies, a stately old lighthouse rises from a dramatic
limestone cape to stand guard between shore and ship. The beaches
here are serene and unspoiled, beckoning visitors to kick off
their shoes and relish the warm pink sands.
Rock Sound
A beautiful seaside town laced with colorful homes, lush gardens,
and friendly locals. Rock Sound is also home to Ocean Hole,
a "bottomless" limestone wonder filled with tropical
fish.
Devil's Backbone
Many a ship has tangled with this shallow coral reef that has
more than lived up to its name. An excellent site for snorkeling
and diving excursions.
Current Cut
This narrow channel has been rated one of the 10 best dives
in the world. Divers and snorkelers alike can ride the current
at a pulse-raising 7-10 knots.
Glass Window Bridge
At the narrowest point of the island, a window-like rock formation
spans a gap where the turbulent waters of the Atlantic Ocean
meet the calmer seas of the Caribbean. The existing man-made
structure replaced a naturally-formed bridge that was blown
away during a hurricane years ago, but the view is still spectacular.
Hatchet Bay Cave
Once a haven for pirates, the magnificent Cave at Hatchet Bay
dazzles visitors with stalagmites and stalactites that gleam
in the torchlight. The cave is approximately a mile long and
is best toured with a guide.
Preacher's Cave
This large blue-shadowed cave temporarily sheltered Eleutheran
Adventurers, the pilgrims who gave the island its name, and
served as their place of worship. It is believed to be the site
of the first Christian service ever held in the Bahamas.
Spanish Wells
An ever-popular day trip destination, Spanish Wells is just
a short ferry ride from Eleuthera. It is here sailors came ashore
from Spanish galleons to fill their casks with fresh water after
long sea voyages. The people of this prosperous fishing village,
known for their outstanding seamanship, are direct descendants
of the Eleutheran Adventurers. There is excellent fishing and
diving available, even a sunken train wreck for those seeking
the unusual.
Hayne's Library
This historic landmark is host to several weekly social events.
An internet café is available for those who just can't
seem to leave the world behind.
Surfer's Beach
When you think of surfing, you probably envision Hawaii, or
at the very least, the California coast. Eleuthera is also home
to a winter surf spot that rivals the best of the best according
to experts.
Gregory Town
Host to Eleuthera's famed Pineapple Festival, Gregory town is
known for its fabulous food and famous pineapple punch. The
Pineapple Festival draws visitors from around the world to experience
celebrations including pineapple eating contests, the parade
of the Gregory Town Marching Brass Band, fire dancing, a Little
Miss and Teen Pineapple Princess pageant and junkanoo, the unique
Bahamian musical street carnival.
