How to get around


Exploring Elbow Cay by Golf Cart
On Elbow Cay, golf carts are the primary way to get around, making them essential for exploring the island. They can take you almost anywhere, from pristine beaches to local shops, giving you the freedom to enjoy the island at your own pace.
There are a few restrictions to keep in mind. In the settlement of Hope Town, streets are narrow, and motorized traffic is limited—only businesses and guests with special needs are permitted. Otherwise, golf carts make island travel easy, fun, and quintessentially Bahamian.
Exploring Elbow Cay by Bicycle
Many Elbow Cay vacation rentals provide bicycles free of charge, but you can also rent bikes at The Bike Shop in Hope Town. During peak season, bikes can run out quickly since reservations aren’t accepted, so it’s best to rent one when you arrive.
Bicycles offer full access to the island and are a fun, eco-friendly way to explore Elbow Cay. Cruise along scenic streets, visit secluded beaches, and take in the unique charm of Hope Town—all at your own pace. Bikes at The Bike Shop are first-come-first-served.
GOLF CART RENTALS
When renting a golf cart, please keep in mind that drivers must be 25 or older and have a valid driver's license.
