Things to do in Rock Sound

Rock Sound is the largest town in South Eleuthera, a small, friendly settlement on a broad bay on the island’s sheltered western side, with grocery stores, churches and a lively fish fry. The surrounding coast is lined with quiet beaches, private villas and long-standing vacation communities, including Cotton Bay and Windermere Island. Farther south, Cape Eleuthera is home to a marina and The Island School, a well-known marine research and education program, while the island’s southern tip leads to Lighthouse Beach and its pink sand.
