Beach

Type:	- Sand - Pebbles	Size: - Small

Hazards:	- Trees - Other	Beach crowds: - None

Very small beach, barely enough room to set up your kite. When setting up on this beach please be aware that it is also used by Bahamians and you should be respectful of the size of the beach and the people that use it. Plenty of kite killing trees in the area and honey comb rock further down. The water is shallow and flat enough that you should be able to launch the kite in the water away from the beach.
