How to get to Eleuthera?
Eleuthera is quite easy to reach. The Island has three airports:
- North Eleuthera (ELH), in the north end of the island;
- Governor’s Harbour (GHB), located near the center of the island;
- Rock Sound Airport (RS), in the south.
Governor’s Harbour and North Eleuthera are the recommended airport destinations for our guests since the BlueSkies cottage is located in the North-Central part of the island.
It is quite easy to get to Eleuthera as there are a number of possible options for travellers from Nassau, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or other major USA or Canada airports: American Airlines, Silver Air, Southern Air, Bahamas Air.
Since Eleuthera is becoming a popular destination it is almost impossible to keep up with the increasing number of flight offers and therefore we strongly encourage you to contact a travel agent or visit a carrier’s website for the most updated information.

Ferries (from Nassau)
You can take the ferry to Eleuthera from Nassau instead of taking the short flight from Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or Nassau.
Bahamas Ferries offers service to Harbour Island, Three Island Dock, Current, Spanish Wells, Governor’s Harbour, and Rock Sound.
We would d like to point out that, in comparison to a quick flight, the ferry journey takes significantly longer and costs nearly the same. Unless you have no other options, we highly recommend opting for a flight.
