Hope Town’s pastel cottages and winding lanes tell a story that began nearly 250 years ago, with brave American Loyalists seeking refuge.

On this self-guided audio walking tour, you’ll discover how this Bahamian settlement was a sanctuary for those fleeing the American Revolution, and later became the vibrant community it is today. You’ll explore historic homes, centuries-old cemeteries, and learn how the controversial lighthouse that once threatened the town’s economy became its salvation. You’ll weave through narrow streets originally designed for donkey carts, passing charming colonial homes with their signature bright shutters. Along the way, you’ll hear tales of shipwreck salvagers, boat builders, and the resilient families who shaped this island’s unique character through generations of challenges and triumphs.
