Access: | Short Walk |
Fly into Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or Nassau Bahamas and take a flight to North Eleuthra. From there take a water taxi across the harbour to Harbour Island. It's on the west side of the island. The best is to catch the high speed ferry called `Bohingi` in Nassau to Harbour Island.
One must be careful not to dump their kite in a West wind due to rocky shores and a couple of marinas lining the shore of HI. Outside of that, the kiting is great.
