The capital of Long Island, Clarence Town is home to just under 100 people, so on any given day, visitors may outnumber the locals. One main road traverses the island, which is over 70 miles long, and two different worlds unfold on either side. The eastern edge is the wild side, where Atlantic winds rustle the palm trees that frame secluded coastline, coves and caves. Explore Hamilton Cave, where Lucayan Indians lived centuries ago, and peer into Dean’s Blue Hole, one of the world’s deepest blue holes at over 660 feet. On the west side, you’ll find miles and miles of deserted white sand beaches that descend into impossibly blue waters. Here are most of the island’s few resorts as well as roadside eateries offering conch, an island favorite, prepared in a variety of ways.
