About this guide

A local guide, kept up to date by someone who lives here.

This website is maintained by a full-time Harbour Island resident who keeps up with openings, closures, events, changes and the services available on the island.

Briland is a tight-knit community, and news travels fast. This guide simply shares the information that comes in day to day, from new restaurants and seasonal closures to schedule changes and island events, so visitors can arrive prepared and enjoy every moment. It grew out of the @HarbourIslandBahamas Instagram account, which shares the island’s beaches, boats, food and people.

Some island businesses are partners of the guide, and the places marked “Our favorite” are ones we especially recommend. Every listing is kept accurate and updated each season, so what you read is what you will find.
