Hatchet Bay is the site of a failed livestock operation planned for Eleuthera. Someone built all the silos around what would eventually become pastures and then blasted a narrow opening into a very well protected ocean pond. Unfortunately, the livestock operation failed and the small settlement is pretty depressed. We did find a great church and joined them for worship.
We took the bikes ashore several days to do some riding and sightseeing. One of the amazing highlights was the Glass Window Bridge. There used to be a natural bridge over the narrowest part of the island where the deep Atlantic waters to the east connect to the shallow sound waters to the west, but a hurricane destroyed the arch. Then a large concrete span bridge was built to replace it, but a rogue wave hit it in the early 90’s and shifted the entire bridge about 7 feet! The road approaches were adjusted a bit, the bridge shored up some and life goes on. Resilience!
