Harrismith Beach

St. Philip·Southeast coast·Moderate

About

Located in close proximity to Bottom Bay with unique historical integration. Accessed via long stone steps carved directly into the cliffside from the ruins of the 19th-century Harrismith Great House. Small cove somewhat protected by a thick reef shelf on the northern end but still, strong undertows demand respect. Exercise extreme caution.
