Anguilla : Katouche Bay

Katouche Bay This tiny beach is at the bottom of Anguilla's only "rain forest". Since this beach is not good for swimming or snorkeling is it usually empty. This beach is the best spot on the island for hiking. There are several trails through the forest that lead up to the top of the hill and to Iguana Cave. Wear hiking boots and long pants. It is a fun place to explore or have a picnic, and it is a good place to look for fossil sealife.
