Harbour Island provides an amazing view
of the city’s fireworks and boat parades!
In December a lighted holiday boat parade
circles the island sending twinkling lights
down the river, and New Year’s featured two
fireworks displays on either end of the island.

There are also many water activities that
people can enjoy. If you do not own a boat or
kayak, fear not! Adventure seekers can easily
rent eboats, water bikes, and paddleboards
to explore the area. Be sure to keep an eye
out for manatee and dolphins.

Above all else, the best reason for living on
Harbour Island is simply the people. There
is a very strong sense of community here.
The residents are eclectic and diverse. You’ll
find doctors, lawyers, and entrepreneurs;
pro-athletes, artists, and world travelers. But
more importantly, the residents of Harbour
Island are some of the most charismatic,
thought provoking, and endearing people I
have ever met. I take great pride in calling
them my Harbour Island Family.
