About this experience
We have conjured up a suitable itinerary that offers all the adventure in a slightly shorter 4x4 experience to get you back by mid-day!
The adventure commences at the extraordinary Bathsheba Beach, spotted with rock formations paralleled to the coastline. It is the perfect place to take the ultimate photos and freshen up while you enjoy the cooling sea breeze of the east of the island. Then we make our way to Bath Beach, unlike other beaches on the eastern coast, Bath has some of the calmest waters.
This is one adventure that should be added to your must-do list!
