French Leave Beach

A glorious summer camp at Haynes Library

Last Friday saw the finish of a glorious summer camp at Haynes Library here in Governors Harbour. I have already told you that the theme was around the world in 30 days – well the last week after having been all around the world they made rockets to go off in to outer space ! They were made with Alka […]

A great party and more tales from Governors Harbour.

So this week there is lots to tell you about a great party in Governors Harbour, a car upside down in the harbour, news on Jack’s Bay and a brilliant craft company in Kenya ! First the party – it was Angelika Bacchus’s 50th and boy does she know how to throw a party ! Here in her own words […]

Discovering Navy Beach and a trip to the vet

So I am embarrassed to tell you dear readers that after living here for 14 years I have only just finally found my way to Navy Beach – up towards the airport on the Atlantic side. With my sister Jane here I decided that we needed to break the routine and try other beaches rather than just French Leave and […]

Dis and Dat from Governors Harbour Eleuthera

This week – just dis and dat from here in Governors Harbour Eleuthera ! Not too much happening here apart from the usual glorious weather and warm seas to wallow about in …. The beaches are so beautiful at this time of year and I relish just having to take Rudge for his exercise and swim every afternoon on French […]

All the Rage in Eleuthera

A cold front here in Eleuthera this week……

There is a cold front here in Eleuthera this week and plenty of cool gusty wind as well. You may think – well that’s not much like news but it is the knock on effect of this type of weather here that is what affects things. You may remember I said I was going to write about La Bougainvillea this […]

Out of Season in Eleuthera……

Out of season – as we are in Eleuthera right now – is a time to enjoy the quiet of the island. Most restaurants are either closed or closing this week – there are still some visitors but nothing like the usual amount we see throughout the rest of the year. Instead we are cooking delicious fresh caught fish and […]

Five more things I can’t live without …

So again – not truly things that I can’t live without but certainly five more things that enhance my life here…. 1 French Leave Beach – right here on the island – the beach we walk as often as we can– it gives me a heart lifting experience every time I set foot on it, and often we […]

Best of Eleuthera – French Leave Beach – Governors Harbour

So here I begin a series of what we consider to be the best beaches in Eleuthera – first is French Leave Beach just outside Governors Harbour. Confusingly this is one beach with two names – it is known as both French Leave Beach and Club Med Beach – but they both refer to the same strip of heaven on […]
