Jamesby Hike

12° 37.7′ N · 61° 21.6′ W

The smallest of the inner cays, a scrub-topped hill with a short climb to a 360-degree view of the turquoise lagoon, Petit Tabac and the reef.

Practical

Position is the islet as mapped in OpenStreetMap; the park lists Jamesby (as 'James Bay') among the cays with hiking trails. Beach the dinghy. Manchineel grows on Jamesby; avoid contact. Cruisers report Jamesby's anchoring area calmer than the busy Baradal side.

Best for

A quick climb for the classic Cays panorama
