James Henderson is one of Britain’s most respected travel writers and the author of The Cadogan Guide to the Caribbean and the Bahamas. Known to most of its users and readers as 'the Caribbean Bible', the Cadogan Guide (published by Globe Pequot in the United States) is soon to go into its sixth edition.

James Henderson is an award-winning travel writer and contributes to many of the major publications in the British National press. He writes regularly for the Financial Times and contributes to the Sunday Telegraph, The Times, The Independent, Harpers and Queen, travelintelligence.com and many other newspapers and magazines.

He recently launched DefinitiveCaribbean.com. ‘There is so much which cannot be included in a guide book, for reasons of space and style,' comments James. 'You will find it on DefinitiveCaribbean. There are articles, restaurant and book reviews and hotel reports and of course we will keep you up to date with all the developments in the islands.’

A small but wide beach, very private, and which is reached by a very rough road from East End. A north shore swell may produce an undertow here.
