Guidebook for Eleuthera Bahamas
Food Scene
Good all around restaurant at The Cove resort, considering the island simplicity.
In general, well executed dishes, still service is at Island time.
Recommend going for lunch, the views are gorgeous.
Call in advance as sometimes they have special parties. i.e. We went on July 4th and they had a beach party and no food service in the restaurant and we did not feel like having hot dogs and burgers (set up on the beach was gorgeous with DJ and festive decor)

Great place to have a very good meal paired with an incredible view of Governors Harbour harbor. Our good friend Charles runs a tight kitchen.
Cocktails, appetizers, and a stunning sunset anyone??

Cozy gourmet grocery store and small bites/wine bar. Also at night now hosts a set menu in a delightful private room on the side. I haven's yet tried it but I hear is very nice.

Great place that offers (when in season) local lobster and stone crabs. Next town over (Hatchet Bay) going North. Chef / owner gets his daily catch and executes simple but delicious dishes.

Miles of pink sand beaches mostly for you, you will see very few other people...
If you go around 5 you will see Dan Larry and their potcake Ruffus.

Adventurous trip to get to this beach on the southernmost tip of Eleuthera. It is a truly fantastic place no picture or words can describe accurately. 65 miles (105 km) South, any further and you are with the fishes!
Need SUV/Jeep to get there as the road is challenging the last few miles, but that is part of the fun.
Start early and plan to stop at the Ocean Hole in Rock Sound. On the way back stop at quaint Tarpum Bay town.

Natural shallow water rock formations to take a bath like a King or Queen.
You have to be very careful during rough sea conditions as it can be very dangerous (and humbling to see). Close to Gaulding's Cay beach.
Also, next to the house, if you go to the right about 200/300 yards after some sandy area, there is a similar formation (a picture of it is in the house pictures)
