Lava flow

Managed to find a new beach on Tortola today.  The secret was revealed by a person I met on the dive boat last week.  The beach is deserted as it is quite difficult to find but you are rewarded with a great wide beach with white sand surrounded by lava flows which has come down the mountain into the sea.  These rugged rocks are extremely sharp and play host to some rather large crabs!  The landscape is quite spectacular and to find a deserted beach in the Caribbean is quite an event.
