"Harbour Island is an out island of the out island Eleuthera in the Bahamas . Home to a scant 1,500 people and more golf carts than cars, Harbour Island is the perfect place to get away from it all. It’s also home to the rich and famous who visit for the same reason the rest of us do, quiet relaxation. As soon as I landed on the island I could feel my stress melt away. It's hard to get too worried on an island with roosters in the street and golf carts whizzing past. Harbour Island is one of those places that quickly occupies a place in your heart and I know I can't wait for a return visit."

Nicknamed "Billionaire Island", be prepared for an expensive but friendly, warm people and Pink Beach. The clothes are flowing and brightly colored. Carts or walking are the best modes of transportation after taking the water taxi to the island from Eleuthera Island. Few shells on the beach. The rich have removed the reefs and destroyed parts of the dunes.

Very pretty island with plenty of food and drinks. We spent 4 days on and off the island and would highly recommend harbour Island to anyone looking for a getaway. Great food, great atmosphere, friendly locals. Be sure to rent a golf cart and go exploring.

Harbor Island not so great. Pink Sand Beach is beautiful though. If you’ve never been to other Caribbean Islands and you go straight from the dock to your resort then it would be fine. Harbour Island is basically a slum with a handful of nice resorts on the beautiful pink beach. It is also way more expensive than any other island we’ve ever been to and we’ve been to St Lucia, Barbados x 2, St Maarten, Grand Cayman X 2 and Spanish Wells, Bahamas. If you are staying on Eleuthera or Spanish Wells/Russell Island and just want to go sight seeing over there, spend your money where you are. You are not missing anything by not going to Harbour Island. How things can be so expensive on an island that is such a slum baffles me.

One of the most beautiful beaches we've been to. A handful of bars and restaurants to choose from.
