10 Things to do in Out Islands That You Shouldn't Miss
The Out Islands are synonymous with sport, from the depths of the Gulf Stream that yield big game fish to the coral reefs just off shore that are catnip to scuba divers. Sailing, kayaking and beach-combing add action to lazy days in the sun, while resident pink flamingos and rare Bahama parrots color local hikes.

We had no idea whatcto expect and we were pleasantly surprised. The Preserve is a class act with lots of educational opportunities or just a lovely walk through the Preserve. Everyone that visits the island of Eluethera should visit this Preserve. We spent 3 hours wondering the trails!

We warily made the trek to Lighthouse beach in our Nissan SUV after reading numerous reviews of the treacherous terrain/road to get there. We are so glad we made the journey to this breathtaking beach. It is everything the reviews say and more. Once the paved road ends it is about 3.5 miles on a single lane rock/sand/gravel road which takes care to navigate. You must have good ground clearance. Lighthouse bay this is the first thing you will see and where where we parked. Then it’s a short walk to lighthouse beach. You will need a 4x4 to make it up the hill and over to lighthouse beach but the walk is not difficult. The first thing you should do is walk the path up to the lighthouse and take in the view from the rock cliffs as you can see lighthouse beach (Atlantic side) and Lighthouse Bay (Bay side) from one viewpoint, it’s incredible. From there pick your spot and camp for the day. There are no facilities and make sure to take plenty of water.

This is possibly one of the most amazing places on earth. You can walk for miles and miles into the ocean and never get above your waist. My daughters had so much fun collecting sand dollars. It was a very peaceful and beautiful beach to relax the afternoon away.

Window-like geological formation that provides a unique view from bay to ocean.

This place is amazing. A very rough Atlantic ocean on one side and a very calm Caribbean on the other and the Blow hole is a must see also. Near the south end of the bridge

Our first Port of Call on the Regal Princess Cruise last week was a nice respite from the cruise ship activities, while wiggling our toes in the sand. Beach was nice. Didn't get to enjoy the Bar-B-Q lunch because we went on the Princess Cays Island Bike Adventure. The leisurely guided bike ride took us over a few miles of Eleuthera. Our 2 guides were very informative and funny. We also enjoyed a lovely rendition of a hymn while visiting the church ruins. Highly recommend this low impact activity as alternative to laying around on the beach.
