Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve

Beautiful, super built and marked tour. Amazing nature, in a really quiet area. Buy the turtle food please, because we didn’t and it turned out, they are really used to it, and were super cute and hungry. Around 2 hours the whole trip, if you take your time and enjoy the nature. Butterflies, snakes, frogs, turtles, birds, bugs and everything, cool place to do something other than the beaches.

Experience the beauty of the Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve, where you can explore and learn about the diverse native plants of The Bahamas. Discover how the preserve plays a vital role in conserving the country's natural habitats and maintaining a healthy ecosystem. Immerse yourself in nature's symphony, from the melodies of birds to the hum of insects. Don't miss the chance to feed the friendly turtles and climb Ethan's Tower for a breathtaking 360-degree view of the preserve and its surroundings.

Absolutely beautiful area. The staff was very kind and helpful. There were signs posted all around the preserve with education about plant and animal life. It’s definitely a go to place, you don’t want to miss it.

Very educational place. A must do if you want to learn more about how people used to live there and how they do now. We can feel the owner is passionate ( and extremely nice). The tower was cool, beautiful panoramic view from the top. This place is very well maintained. The toilets were immaculate.

This place exceeded my expectations! Gorgeously surrounded by native plants, well marked, clean and easy to follow trails. Very clean and well maintained! It costs $10 to get in, they do offer senior discounts & probably for kids as well. You can call ahead to schedule a guided tour or choose to do a self guided tour like we did. Make sure you walk up to the top of Ethan’s Tower for a gorgeous bird eye view of the surroundings. Watch out for the Golden Orb Spiders, they are in abundance here. Gorgeous to look at though! Tip, go early if your here during the summer because naturally it gets real hot real quick! Not a whole lot of breeze because of the location. A definite must do if you’re into nature!

Excellent educational journey. Great jungle walk all over learning about the plant life and history of the Bahamas. Turtle feeding was so cute, but was unexpected. As soon as the turtles see you they all coming running(swimming) to be fed. I would suggest at least 2 packs of turtle food from the welcome center as we felt bad that we ran out and half the turtles didn't get any. If you plan to go up to the tower or weather station be careful and watchful of the huge spiders who like to spread across the trail.

This preserve is lovely. The employees are super friendly. The sites are beautiful. There are informative plaques all over as you walk, keeping you informed of what you are looking at, as well as providing historical information. Loved visiting the preserve and will be back again. Highly recommend stopping by!

Phenomenal place to go. It is beautiful and the trails are amazing. My wife and I hold a membership because every time we come to eleuthra, we go at least twice.
