Harbour Island
Once the capital of the Bahamas, Harbour Island is home to
Dunmore Town, whose flower-lined streets and colourful New
England-style buildings are popular with tourists in the Bahamas.
Harbour Island's main attraction, though, is the spectacular pink
sand beach that takes advantage of the protection of a coral reef
for tranquil waters and excellent swimming. The accommodation on
Harbour Island caters mostly to wealthy travellers, especially
along the "zillionaire's row" development.
Information & Facts
Language
English is the official language in the
Bahamas.
Money
The official currency is the Bahamian Dollar (BSD), which is
divided into 100 cents. The Bahamian Dollar is equal in value to
the US Dollar and both currencies are accepted throughout the
islands. Currency can be exchanged at banks, bureaux de change and
many hotels. There are ATMs in the main tourist centres and credit
and debit cards are widely accepted in all the big resorts.
Travellers cheques can be changed at all banks, although those in
US Dollars receive the best rates. Banks tend to be open from
9.30am to 3pm (Monday to Thursday) and 9.30am to 5pm (Fridays).
Time
Local time in the Bahamas is GMT -5 (GMT -4 from first Sunday
in April till last Sunday in October).
