Eleuthera is one of the more popular vacation islands in The Bahamas. It is a long, narrow island with stunning pink sand beaches, colonial settlements, and friendly people. At 110 miles long and only two miles wide, Eleuthera also has miles and miles of beachfront real estate opportunities. Real estate on Eleuthera also provides a good investment because of the popular vacation rental industry. Settlements popular with real estate buyers include Governor’s Harbour, Palmetto Point, Gregory Town, Rock Sound and the nearby islands of Spanish Wells and Harbour Island.

Endless pineapple fields and white-pink sandy beaches to unknown caves and over 100 miles of coastline, Eleuthera is the ideal vacation spot. Much of the current architecture was influenced by the British Loyalists that fled the Revolutionary War and has been adopted into the Bahamian housing. When the Puritans in 1648 set sail trying to find religious freedom and came across this majestic island, they named it “eleuthero,” which derives from the greek word that means freedom. Eleuthera and Harbour Island are the birthplace of the Bahamas and, over the years, has become a hotspot for tourists from all over the world. Escape and find your stretch of pink sand and crystal blue water.
