Harbour Island spans just 500 acres, making it incredibly easy to navigate. A quick look at the map highlights how close everything is—whether you plan to visit the beach, explore Dunmore Town, or stop by a local restaurant or marina. Because the island features charming, narrow streets and compact distances, most visitors choose to drive in Harbour Island using a golf cart, which offers the most convenient and enjoyable way to get around.

Renting a golf cart is not only the most practical option it’s also fun, safe, and perfectly suited to the relaxed island lifestyle. Golf carts can easily maneuver through the island’s winding roads and are allowed throughout all areas. Parking is simple, even near popular destinations like Pink Sands Beach or the center of Dunmore Town.

Travel times are short: driving from your hotel or luxury vacation rental to virtually any spot on the island typically takes no more than 5 to 6 minutes at a leisurely speed of about 20 miles per hour. For visitors seeking both convenience and a touch of island charm, golf carts are by far the preferred mode of transportation on Harbour Island.
