Back to the Best of Eleuthera series – it’s been a while – and a look at Ocean Fox . Plenty of people who come to Eleuthera want to experience the beauty of the underwater world – and Ocean Fox is a very popular choice amongst our own renters at Governors Estate for doing just that……. They offer a great […]
Best of Eleuthera
In the Best of Eleuthera series I want to highlight the upcoming festival of Eleuthera All That Jazz 2016 – happening all over Eleuthera from March 30th – April 3rd. As many of you are aware this raises much needed funds for the Haynes Library – last year over $40,000- a fabulous effort. The festival kicks off this year on […]
So Saturday January 9th ’16 saw the annual Junkanoo Festival here in Governors Harbour. It was a spectacular sight and went on for several hours along a stretch of the Queens Highway outside the Royal Bank of Canada. Junkanoo, for those of you not familiar with it, is a type of Carnival parade with fantastic costumes mainly made from cardboard […]
This week we pay a visit to Rainbow Inn – next to feature in the Best of Eleuthera series…. Richard and Rhonda Waserman along with their son Zev and his lovely wife Mish Lavagnino run the Rainbow Inn in Rainbow Bay. They specialize in the freshest fish – never frozen – along with great steaks and on Monday nights pizza […]
I have been wanting to write on blog for ages about marvelous Millie Johnson – the mistress of the bedchamber here at Governors Estate Eleuthera. One of the great things about writing a blog is the time you get to spend chatting with people – all in the name of research of course ! I learned at a very young […]
I recently went to chat with Governors Harbour resident Bill Burrows to hear his memories of the Potlatch Club in Eleuthera. Bill was born and bred in Governors Harbour and he worked at the Potlatch Club from 1961 until 1971….. Potlatch for those of you who don’t know was on the Banks Road – just before Tippy’s restaurant and Pineapple […]
Back to the series the Best of Eleuthera – this week featuring Dr Cliff Bacchus. Now retired from Government service but with a thriving private medical practice right here in Governors Harbour. Dr Bacchus had always wanted to one day open his own private practice and after he retired in 2002 that is exactly what he did. Always having had […]
In the Best of Eleuthera series I decided to do a piece about the Levy Medical centre right here in Governors Harbour. This is the government health clinic that provides medical care for both people who live here and for visitors as well. The building is there thanks to the wonderful Mr Austin T Levy and his wife June. I […]
In the Best of Eleuthera series I now take a good look at the Market Supermarket in Rock Sound. This is one of the largest food markets on the island – maybe only the North Eleuthera Food Store is comparable in size. There is a great selection of fresh fruit and vegetables thanks now to a bigger and better chiller […]
So I first wrote about the restaurant 1648 at French Leave in December 2014 – but I decided to do an update as well as re-present the original blog. Since opening last December the restaurant has gone from strength to strength and the great news for those of us who live here year round is that it is not closing […]
