There are a lot of beautiful beaches on the planet. Some of them are very popular touristic destinations while others are hard to reach and they stay hidden. The popularity of beaches varies very much. The popular beaches from 10 years ago today are forgotten and the tourists seek new places to spend their holiday at.
One of the hidden and hardly reachable, but recently very popular places is Harbour Island beach.
Harbour Island is one of the islands which form the Bahamas. Harbour Island is located on the north from the Eleuthera Island. The capital, and the only town on the island is Dunmore Town.
The island is accessible by plane to North Eleuthera and then with water taxi to Harbour Island.
The Harbour Island beach gained world fame because of the characteristic pink sand which can be found on the beaches. Because of the unusual coloring and fine granulation of the sand Harbour Island is known as the best beach in the Bahamas. The beach on the island is 3.5 mile long and it is full of tourists during the main season.
The water around the island is very warm and clear and it is perfect for diving or snorkeling. The underwater life is very rich and because of the clear water the tourists who like to dive will be very satisfied. For the water sport lovers there are a large variety of water sports accessible like surfing, jet skiing, water skiing and many more.
On the island the navigation is very easy and the best way to explore the island is by golf carts. These golf carts can be rented on many spots of the island and they are very affordable and we do not need any extra driving licenses to enjoy the ride.
There are a lot of great restaurants on Harbour island. Some of the most popular ones are : The Garden Terrace, The Rock House and Ma Ruby`s restaurant. All of these places offers local cuisines and standard western food. Most of the restaurants offers great views and some kind of evening programs like live music or other events.
For accommodations we can find everything from basic quality to luxurious hotels and resorts. Many of the hotels offers rooms with breathtaking views of the ocean. No matter where we stay the beach will be always just a few minutes far and easily reachable.
If we decide to spend our vacation somewhere in the region of the Bahamas Harbour Island would be a perfect and logical choice. It is a very new and fresh place recently discovered by the tourists but it already provides all the luxury and attractions to its guests. The unique thing about Harbour Island beach is a perfect pink sand which can not be found anywhere else in the world.
