Many locals will offer to guide you through the ´Bush´, but there are also some hotels and smaller enterprises that offer jungle tours.

Besides the many nice beaches on the Island, don´t miss a trip to Pigeon Point. With its gently waving coconut palm trees over the white sand and the warm and clean waters, no doubt one of the postcard beaches of the Caribbean.

The days when you just don’t feel to do anything, ‘chill out’ in the hammock on the veranda or between the trees in the garden and simply enjoy the view. Besides the closeby fish market where you can buy fresh fish every day during the daytime, There is a supermarket and other small shops to provide you with all you might need to make your stay an enjoyable one.
