Secret Beach


Title – Secret Beach
Date – July 2003
Location - British Virgin Islands

The picture doesn’t do this beach justice; this was truly one of the world’s most beautiful beaches and certainly in the top five in the world that I have seen. But I warn you about trying to find it, there is no point it’s a secret.

A clue I can give you is that to get to it you have to know the exact spot in the road to stop, and the point where the fence is crossed, before heading down and hiking for half an hour to appear here. If you do find it, it is sure to be with the help of the locals and even then, it’s ‘who you know’ that counts. But if you want to join the club and be one of the few to ever get to visit this Virgin Island’s beach there is one point you must remember:

Don’t tell anyone else. Please!

There are fewer and fewer jewels like this left in the world, it’s the responsibility of everyone who has the privilege to visit them to ensure they stay that way. At Beyond The Blue we add excitement to the preparations for your trip, we are not running our Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshops to scare you, we are running them to ensure that you are not scared when you might otherwise have been and as a result might miss a rare opportunities like the ‘secret beach’.
