Governor’s Harbour

Governor’s Harbour is one of the oldest settlements in the Bahamas, with a working airport that makes it a practical stop or turnaround point on an Eleuthera itinerary. The town has real colonial-era architecture and a settled, lived-in feel that’s different from the more touristed stops further south.

Don’t miss French Leave Beach just south of town, one of Eleuthera’s better pink-sand stretches and an easy walk or dinghy ride from the harbour.

Part of Eleuthera, see the full destination guide for getting there and pairing this with the rest of the island.
