   Harbour Island is the gem of the Bahamas, bar-none! The original settlement of Dunmore Town, Harbour Island is the oldest and most charming settlement in The Bahamas.

  Dunmore Town was once the Bahamian summer capital and second only to Nassau in importance and population. Harbour Island is surrounded by pink, sugar-sand beaches, the most beautiful of the Caribbean Islands.

  Harbour Island features 18th century New England style structures and cottages restored with an artist's pallette. Harbour Island is thought by some historians to have been the intended destination of the Eleutherian Adventurers. In fact, the first settlement on this island was founded before the U.S. declaration of independence.

farming and chicken industries. These industries failed as the island was gearing up for tourism. At the onset of

independence, the government bought out the farmers and shortly there after, the industry perished. Since the

independence of Eleuthera, the remaining settlements off the mainland, Harbour Town and Spanish Wells.
