Southeast Coast Beaches - Cave Bay

A 5-minute walk south of Bottom Bay is Cave Bay. The cliffs above it are the location for a centuries-old stone mansion from the plantation era. Price Charles was rumored to have tried to purchase and renovate the property for Princess Diana in the mid-eighties. Carefully explore the old mansion! The boards which were the floor have long since rotted away. A grand set of stone steps leads to the beach below, which is a bit rocky and rough for swimming. However, it is long and sprinkled with coconut palms, and the cliffs are fun to explore. The far right side of the beach is great for wading, as it is shallow and very sandy.
