Rock Sound - Eleuthera Past
Postcards and Photos of Rock Sound Featuring Cotton Bay Club Resort and Golf Course
A variety of old photos and postcards mostly dated from the 60s and 70s. Scenes are of and around the town of Rock Sound. Eleuthera is one of the most popular island in the Bahamas, known for its miles of pink sand beaches and the warm hospitality of its inhabitants.
A few historical facts: The old Cotton Bay Club Resort is closed and the golf course is closed to the public, however the homes that occupy the surrounding area are still in use by their various owners. The old Cotton Bay Club was originally developed by the founder of PanAm Airlines, Juan Trippe, in 1959. Cotton Bay in its heyday was one of the most popular resorts on Eleuthera and frequented by the wealthy. The nearest resort to Cotton Bay currently is Powell Point Marina / Cape Eleuthera Resort and Condo Hotel which located on the southeast tip of Eleuthera.
