This is the story of a week in Eleuthera when nothing much is happening……. best news of the week is that Da Perk coffee shop is open again after a few weeks break – yippee !

So this week saw Hurricane Matthew passing us by in Eleuthera and then travels with Mary – to Fort Lauderdale. Firstly we are all so incredibly grateful that Hurricane Matthew took a turn to the west and barely brushed us really. We had some incredible horizontal rain – for long periods of time and some very strong gusty winds – […]
Even though it is the beginning of the quiet season here in Governors Harbour Eleuthera it is a delight to be able to write about art and culture here ! The week long workshop for the children in the area for learning about all aspects of Junkanoo was held right here in GH under the watchful eye of Anishka George […]
Now it is nearing the end of the season here in Governors Harbour, this week I am giving a quick roundup of what’s happening. Well the weather is still very hot and we are all hoping that a lot of rain may come our way but we will see. There are still visitors here on the island – but it […]

The weather was very kind to us – not too hot and thankfully the rain held […]
We get to meet some wonderful people here in Eleuthera – and this week I am writing about one special person – the chocolatier Oliver Kita. We first met Oliver about 18 months ago – he was visiting Governors Harbour and staying with friends at Wykee Estates. We were invited for a fabulous dinner party – the food was delicious […]
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 […]
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.
