Tarpum Bay is one of the larger settlements on the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas. As of the 2010 census, Tarpum Bay had a population of 766.[1] Initially named Glenelg after a British Secretary of State for War and the Colonies, the settlements name was changed to Tarpum Bay to reflect the tarpon fish that could be found there.[2] Tarpum Bay is known for its vibrantly colored buildings and large waterside Anglican church. Local fishermen sell their catch daily at one of the two fishing docks.[3]
