HARBOUR ISLAND
Harbour Island, often referred to as “Briland” by locals, is located off the northeast coast of Eleuthera in the Bahamas, has a rich history dating back to the 17th century. It was originally settled in the 1650s by English Puritans known as the Eleutheran Adventurers, who were seeking religious freedom. The island later became the capital of the Bahamas before Nassau took over the role. Over time, Harbour Island developed into a key shipbuilding and trade hub, known for its maritime industry. By the 18th and 19th centuries, it thrived as a center for sugar, rum, and pineapple exports. Today, it is best known for its stunning pink sand beaches, colonial-era architecture, and reputation as a luxurious travel destination. Visitors to Harbour Island can enjoy a tranquil escape from everyday life, with relatively few tourists and a population of under 2,000. This makes it an ideal spot for families and those looking to unwind by the beach, explore quaint streets, shop in local boutiques, or enjoy sunset cocktails in a serene setting. The combination of natural beauty and a laid-back vibe makes Harbour Island a unique retreat in the Caribbean. Harbour Island is a hidden gem that captivates with its stunning pink sand beaches and tranquil ambiance. The island’s blend of natural beauty, rich history, and charming architecture offers visitors a serene getaway from the busyness of everyday life.
