Long and thin, Eleuthera is under 2km (1.2mi) wide for 160km (100mi) of shoreline with pink-white beaches, sheltered coves and dramatic cliffs. The deep-water, bowling A-frame on the west side of Egg Island takes a good N swell to work, but is usually clean since the trades will blow offshore there. Ride a boat from Spanish Wells to check it out.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
