Introducing Bathsheba

Bathsheba is the main destination on the east coast, although there’s no real ‘there’ here as things are scattered along about 1.5km of sandy, wave-tossed shore and in the hills immediately behind. This is prime surfing country. It’s also good for long beach walks as you contemplate feeling you’ve reached the end of the world. It’s an idyllic image of sand, sea and palm trees.

At night, it’s very quiet here. For excitement there are the lyrical croaks of whistling frogs and the flash of fireflies.
