The beaches are AMAZING over there. There are large sandy beaches with perfectly clear light green water that looks just like the beaches in Far Cry.
My favorite place is north of the South West Port Mouton Wharf, which strangely enough doesn't have a wharf at the end of it???.
There are nice sandy beaches then HUGE rocks, then more beach, then even HUGER rocks until there's nothing but rocks that you have to travel over because there's nowhere else to go.
Can you tell I like rocks? It forces you to jump from rock to rock so you actually travel pretty fast that way. Not a place for people who are afraid of heights. I'm one of those bouncy people who can jump from heights higher than myself onto a small boulder and just keep running.
It's kinda like rock climbing when you're running in this kinda terrain. You can't afford to make mistakes because it's a long way down and the rocks are like sandpaper, which is good for traction but bad for your limbs when you bash into one at high speed.
It makes me mad to see people younger than myself who can barely step out of their parent's mini-van without almost falling.
It would have been interesting to have weighed myself to see how much sweat I lost on that trip. It was even hotter in Shelburne.
We've gotta go and hide a geocache there sometime this summer.

It's more challenging than Carters Beach. http://img.groundspeak.com/cache/e262c9
