Eleuthera stretches 180 kilometres through the central Bahamas, a narrow island between the Atlantic and the Great Bahama Bank with a character quite different from the Exumas circuit. Harbour Island at the northern end has one of the most consistently beautiful beaches in the Caribbean; the Glass Window Bridge marks where the two seas meet at the island narrowest point; and the small towns along the west coast have a genuine Bahamian atmosphere that heavily visited islands often lack. Admiral is part of The Italian Sea Group, building motor yachts from 30 to 90 metres in La Spezia with a production scale that allows consistent quality across a wide range of vessel sizes.
Admiral yachts available in the Bahamas cover a broad range from 35-metre four-cabin vessels to 60-metre long-range superyachts with seven or eight cabins, crews of eight to sixteen depending on size, and a standard interior quality that reflects the Italian design tradition. Watertoy inventories and tender arrangements are suited to island-hopping charter.
Weekly rates for Admiral charters at Eleuthera run from 95,000 to 900,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent. The Bahamas is VAT-free for charter.
Harbour Island off the northern tip of Eleuthera, reached by water taxi from the Government Dock, has a pink sand beach stretching three miles and the colonial village of Dunmore Town. Hatchet Bay on the west coast provides a fully enclosed harbour and fuel point. Governor Harbour is the main provisioning town. Current Cut, the narrow tidal pass between Eleuthera and Current Island, runs fast at peak tide and is navigable at slack water. The Glass Window Bridge at the island narrowest point offers a view of both the Atlantic and the Bahamas Bank simultaneously.
