Seems that this is one of the only bays frequented by rays which I saw standing on the shore. This beach is close to restaurants and other amenities. More

Two beautiful bay's with a back drop of tropical palm trees close to rainforrest. Has a couple of beach front resturants with nice but simple food. Sea can be choppy but snorkelling can be ok from little bay, keep your eye out for stingrays as they are often seen in the bays. More

We stayed at Tamarind cottage,one of 3 beautiful apartments that, make Castara cottage. the cottage was just yards from the beach down a fairly steep track, the only difficulty being whether to turn, right for Little Bay or, left for Castara Bay.

Just make sure you have tennis or sturdy shoes. It was a bit of an arduous trek because of the shoe problem, but, well worth the hike. More

The actual beach was pretty good but busy with fishing boats and fishing activities. I preferred Englishman's Bay. However the town of Castaa has some lovely places to eat at. There is also drumming on wed night on the beach that was a in thing to do. Very pretty village!! More

This rather secluded place had everything we wished for; beautiful beach, beautiful nature, wonderful accomodation, wonderful restaurants and very friendly people. The snorkling possibilities are great, but the sea was too rough when we stayed there. We'll be back! More

Can't get more beautiful, rural and away from the world. Buying fish late-aft from returning fisherman is a great thing to do. More
