Great Beach and Water: The pink sand beaches and clear waters of Eleuthera are world famous, and the beach at CaresAway is among the best on the island. The broad, gently sloping beach is a great play area for even young children. Nearby reefs provide walk-in snorkeling and diving opportunities. Hard packed sand (low tide) is perfect for long walks.

If you would like to look at Google Earth to see the environs of the house, these are the coordinates: 25* 15' 34.77N by 76* 17' 59.50W. You will notice that the sandy beach in front of the house goes out quite a distance into the water for wonderful wading and swimming. This lovely beach is almost encircled by coral reefs, some so shallow that even small children can don a mask and see some lovely little fishies.

Casual family living:
• Outdoor dining set and lots of comfy porch furniture
• Unique wooden ceiling fans in every room
• Comfortable overstuffed upholstered great-room furniture
* Island style wooden blinds
• Large entertainment center with TV, DVD/CD, blue tooth speaker for your own devices, lots of movie classics, games, and good books
* Shaded sea-grape grove overlooking ocean includes large deck atop dune with steps down to the beach

Governors Harbour: The historic Bahamian settlement of Governor’s Harbour is a short drive from the house. As its name implies, the harbor is the focal point of the town. Freight and passenger docks occupy the end of Cupid’s Key. A 19th century library with internet room sits on the tree-lined street that hugs the harbor wall, and Victorian houses overlook the sea. Small shops and restaurants provide most anything you may need and a chance to enjoy conch salad, fresh grouper, peas-and-rice—or just a hamburger. Night life centers around The Buccaneer, Tippy’s, Potlatch Club, or 1648 seaside bars and restaurants. Consult our Elusive Beaches of Eleuthera book and explore multiple beautiful beaches within minutes of our house. Or make a day trip to Harbour Island or Spanish Wells and rent a golf cart to explore two lovely but very different villages. Or head south to Lighthouse beach, where cruise ships drop off passengers for a few hours at the beach--but you can spend all the time you want!
